The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry--starring Gavin MacLeod, known for his role on the popular TV series Love Boat--will be released on DVD tomorrow, May 4, and distributed to Christian retail by Bridgestone Multimedia Group.

Rated PG for thematic material, the 96-minute movie tells the story of 12-year-old buddies Dustin (Jansen Panettiere), Albert (Frankie Ryan Manriquez) and Mark (Allen Isaacson), who look forward to a summer of fun in 1970. When Dustin mows the lawn of 75-year-old Jonathan Sperry (MacLeod), a man he has seen at church, a unique friendship develops.

Released in theaters last September, the film--produced by Rich Christiano--made $1.3 million from 135 theaters nationwide during its 31-week run, according to BoxOfficeMojo.com.

The DVD bonus features include Spanish language, a making-of feature, director/actor commentary, a composer interview, a message from the director, trailers and promos.

The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry retails for $24.95. Click here for more information on the film.
