Ragamuffin Page #4

Synopsis: Based on the life of Rich Mullins, a musical prodigy who rose to Christian music fame and fortune only to walk away and live on a Navajo reservation. An artistic genius, raised on a tree farm in Indiana by a callous father, Rich wrestled all of his life with the brokenness and crippling insecurity born of his childhood. A lover of Jesus and a rebel in the church, Rich refused to let his struggles with his own darkness tear him away from a God he was determined to love. As he struggled with success in Nashville and depression in Wichita, Rich desired most of all to live a life of honest and reckless faith amidst a culture of religion and conformity.

Ah. She's pretty, huh?

(girl)

Pretty cute.

(Rich, off)

I tried my best

to ignore her

and just focus

on Zion or school.

But I couldn't help it.

Uh, from the moment

I met Jess, I--

I couldn't get her

out of my mind.

Sorry about the car.

I pretended to know,

like I know something

about cars

for as long

as I could

and keep it up.

I think

I figured it

out pretty quickly.

Yeah, sorry

about that.

It's all right.

I'll stick

with the piano.

Hold on.

There are a lot

of really amazing

doors on this campus

but these are

probably my favorite.

They're beautiful.

You want to sit

for a bit?

Sure.

Do you write?

Some.

ljournaL

Journal?

How morose

of you.

Hmm.

What do you

write about?

[tsk]

Oh, my dreams.

Fears.

Dreams about what?

About the man

I'll marry

and settle

down with.

The house

we'll live in.

The kids.

The dog.

That's what you

want most.

Yeah.

Yeah, a home

and someone

to share it with.

What about your fears?

Being alone.

No, I mean--

I'm terrified

of myself sometimes,

of this loneliness

I feel inside of me.

It's like, um--

it's like

a black hole

or something.

Even when you're

as close as you can be

to another person,

even when you're touching.

That's exactly it.

Feel alone now?

[happy shout]

[giggle]

Jess and I

were immediately

drawn to each other.

Over the next few months,

I spent some of the most

meaningful days of my life

with her

and learning

each other's stories,

and sharing dreams.

We were just two lonely people

who had found each other

in the dark.

[giggling]

When I was with Jess,

I felt--

I felt something

I hadn't felt

in a long time.

I felt like I was home.

[Rich, strumming guitar

and humming]

J3 Life goes on

and so must the song J3

X1 D00 doo doooo

doc D

[humming]

(Rich, on reel)

J Sing your praise

to the Lord

Come on everybody

and stand up and sing

one more

J Hallelujah, sing

your praise

to the Lord

J I can never tell you .U

I love it.

Is that the guy?

I love it.

[click]

I want to do

this one.

Bryan?

It's very different.

I like different.

I'm sick of the same.

I want to do this song.

Yeah. I'm

with Amy

on this.

It's a good song.

[sigh]

I'll make

the call.

[loud music playing]

Rich!

Ric h a rd!

Rich! Pick

up the phone!

Right here.

Get on the phone

right now!

Who is it?

What are you

freaking out about?

It's Nashville!

The city

of Nashville

is calling?

No, it's some guy

from a record label

that represents Amy Grant.

And he wants

to talk to you!

Did you do this?

No!

Was it Gary?

It wasn't me.

It's Beth.

This had to have

been Beth. Beth!

[giggling]

(girl)

Just' pick

up the phone.

(Gary)
