H.R. No. 364 |
|
||
WHEREAS, The Texas-produced film You Are My Home has won the | ||
hearts of viewers since its release on Netflix on December 4, 2020, | ||
and its cast and crew are truly deserving of special recognition; | ||
and | ||
WHEREAS, Filmed in Harlingen, McAllen, and other cities in | ||
the Rio Grande Valley, this heartwarming Christmas movie tells the | ||
story of Alexandra, an American-born 11-year-old girl who ends up | ||
on the street when her mother, an undocumented immigrant, is | ||
deported by ICE; she is reluctantly taken in by Chloe, a recently | ||
widowed young woman, and the two come to care for each other, while | ||
the widow finds romance with a man named Carlos; and | ||
WHEREAS, The production of the film contributed greatly to | ||
the economy and cultural vitality of the Rio Grande Valley, and it | ||
features a diverse cast of talented performers, including Eva Ariel | ||
Binder as Alexandra, Angel Parker as Chloe, Cristián de la Fuente as | ||
Carlos, and Alyssa Milano as Sloane, an immigration activist; the | ||
film was directed by Amanda Raymond from a screenplay by Marion | ||
Milner and Ms. Raymond; and | ||
WHEREAS, This charming motion picture confronts the issue of | ||
immigration with humanity, empathy, and generosity, and it | ||
represents another impressive addition to the canon of fine filmed | ||
entertainment made in the Lone Star State; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby commemorate the release of You Are My Home and | ||
extend to all those associated with the film sincere best wishes for | ||
continued success; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for the film's production team as an expression of high | ||
regard by the Texas House of Representatives. | ||
