About Sweet Sweet Spirit
Gaither Gospel Series: Filmed at the Gaither studios in Indiana. Maybe it's the sweet harmonica of Buddy Greene and the vocals of Jessy Dixon and Bob Cain on "Leaning On The Everlasting Arms" or a "senior quartet" which features a 93-year-old surprise guest. Maybe it's the angelic voice of The Ruppes who make their Homecoming debut with "Angels In The Room." Whatever it is, there's a sweet, sweet spirit that will have you rewinding and watching again and again
Directed by Donald Boggs, Sweet Sweet Spirit leans on a strong ensemble — Bill Gaither, Jake Hess, John Starnes — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about music titles of 1999.
