Nothing quite says "Jesus Saves" like a man dressed as a tree singing in a high, squeaky voice. And nothing says "best Easter gift ever" like a DVD copy of the Danielson movie, Danielson: A Family Movie {or, Make a Joyful Noise HERE}!

The award-winning documentary hits your plasma television screen at last April 10 (a mere two days after Easter), thanks to the family-friendly folks at Image Entertainment's Home Vision imprint.

Directed, produced, shot, and edited by JL Aronson, A Family Movie captures the Daniel Smith-led prog-folk troupe in action and features cameo appearances from Steve Albini, Daniel Johnston, Alan Sparhawk (Low, Retribution Gospel Choir), author Rick Moody, and WNYC radio host David Garland. You know, in case you forgot.

The film toured the country last year and wraps up its current theatrical run with a pair of midnight showings at Boston's Coolidge Corner Theatre on February 2 and 3.

As previously reported, Danielson cover Dave Fischoff's "Propaganda for a Comic" on Secretly Canadian's SC100 anniversary compilation, out April 10 as well.
