My two best friends walked out mid way through. I have decided not to say it
based on the previews and what they said... even some interviews with the
actors and directors sealed me decision. I was an acting major in college
and I'm a sucker for good acting... but it seems to me that some lines were
crossed rather flippantly in this movie. I know I haven't seen it ... but in
general it just seems that people take less and less responsibility for the
images they put in people's souls. Likewise, people become less and less
effected by images that are, at their core, subversive to
life/love/holiness.
From what I could tell... this seemed to be one of those movies. I can not
deny that it wasn't brilliantly and artistically done... but good for the
soul...???? That is my main question. Responses welcome. :)
