Heart of the Beholder
It is directed by Ken Tipton, with a 2005 release date (above link to IMDb). Basic blurb:
Based on the true story of a family who opened the first videocassette rental stores in St. Louis in 1980. The family was ruined by a corrupt prosecutor who had been blackmailed by a religious group because the family refused to remove Martin Scorsese's controversial film, "The Last Temptation of Christ", from their stores.There is a teaser and some more information here on an official site:
Heart of the Beholder
It's all a bit sensationalist, "The movie Hollywood was afraid to make", etc., but the link with the interesting Last Temptation of Christ controversy certainly makes me prick up my ears.
