Life is how you live it….not how you spend it!

In 1999, Jim Stovall wrote the novel, The Ultimate Gift. Without a major publisher, any retail presence, or proactive marketing campaign, Jim’s novel went on to sell more than 3 million copies and has been translated into more than 15 languages throughout the world. The message of The Ultimate Gift movement has spread globally from one reader to another and inspired millions to realize that their own life and experiences are their most precious gifts.

Testimonials
A breath of fresh air…this wholesome movie goes straight for the heart and will enrich your life with its bountiful presents.
The Kansas City Sun
It’s a pleasure to watch such old pros as Garner and Dennehy work their magic…and Breslin brings such charm to her role that it more than justifies her position as one of Oscar’s youngest nominees.
The Hollywood Reporter
Well-acted by a first-rate cast.
The Washington Post
A greeting card of a movie
Houston Chronicle
We can tell you authoritatively that you’ve never seen a picture like it. Take It’s A Wonderful Life, add The Heiress, put in a pinch of The Millionaire and you’re starting to get warm.
Forbes
Tailor-made for a family…The Ultimate Gift is worth receiving.
Scripps Howard
The film addresses materialism, values and legacy issues in a big way.
The Arizona Republic
The script is tight and often compelling, the dialogue sparks and the production values are first-rate. A nice change-of-pace from the kind of hip cynicism that seems to infuse even the most genial of Hollywood family films these days.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
An inspirational tearjerker…complete with the unwavering message that good is, as it should be, its own reward.
