THE DISAPPEARANCE OF AIMEE TV 1976 DVD Faye Dunaway Bette Davis Semple McPherson

Description: THE DISAPPEARANCE OF AIME (1976 TV Movie) M.O.D. DVD (Manufactured On Demand)101 minutes | Full screen | Color | English | Region 0 (will play on any DVD player worldwide regardless if it's an NTSC or PAL machine)In 1926, flamboyant evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson disappeared for six weeks. At first feared drowned (she'd been vacationing on a California beach at the time she vanished), Aimee finally showed up, wandering barefoot in the Mexican desert. For the benefit of the press, Aimee related a fantastic story of being kidnapped and held for ransom, a story given "credence" by a ransom note which popped up at her Four Square Gospel headquarters. Aimee's tale was full of holes; as more facts became known, it was apparent (to everyone but "true believers") that Aimee had spent those six weeks on a romantic idyll with Kenneth Ormiston, a married radio technician. This made-for-TV movie takes no sides in the controversy, offering generous space to both theories; still, Aimee does not come off as being particularly saint-like. Faye Dunaway stars as Aimee, Bette Davis co-stars as her domineering mother, and William Jordan is man-in-the-middle Ormiston. Written by John McGreevey, The Disappearance of Aimee was the November 17, 1976, presentation of NBC's Hallmark Hall of Fame.In 1926, flamboyant evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson disappeared for six weeks.
