Moviegoers who do not want to watch anything erotic and sensual on Valentine's Day next year have one great option for a film - "Old Fashioned."

The movie, which will be released alongside "Fifty Shade of Grey" guarantees audiences with a more wholesome approach to love and relationships.

Created by the Christian finance firm that worked on "God's Not Dead" and "Heaven is For Real," "Old Fashioned" is currently being dubbed as "the anti-Fifty Shades of Grey" film, according to E! News.

The film, which stars Rick Swartzwelder and Elizabeth Ann Roberts, follows the life of a frat boy and a free-spirited woman, who find love together, the Daily Digest News reported.

Swartzwelder, who also happens to be the film's director and writer said, "I wanted to tell a love story that takes the idea of Godly romance seriously. A story that, without apology, explores the possibility of a higher standard in relationships; yet, is also fully aware of just how fragile we all are and doesn't seek to heap guilt upon those of us that have made mistakes."

In order to help promote his film, Swartzwelder is relying on the huge difference between "Old Fashioned" and "Fifty Shades of Grey" to help him out.

On his blog, he wrote, "One is a modestly budgeted indie flick that seeks to make room for godly romance in contemporary America. The other is a multi-million dollar studio film based on a best-selling erotic novel that has... other goals in mind."

On his blog, Swartzwelder also provided fans and supporters of "Old Fashioned" information on how the indie film came about, including behind-the-scenes footages that took place during production.

He concluded his post, writing, "We know we're picking fight here and that we're more than a little outgunned. Oh well, it is what it is. We have to try..."
