>From your humble correspondent:
Movies
1.. The Color Purple (the scene when Miss Shug first says to Cele =
that she's beautiful -- a film of repentance, reconciliation, redemption =
unlike any I've ever seen; a scene that conveys hope to someone utterly =
bereft)
2.. Broadcast News (when Albert Brooks tells Holly Hunter that Satan =
won't ever announce who he is -- plus, as a journalist, what's not to =
like??? Still, I don't think William Hurt is Satan . . . )
3.. Jesus Christ Superstar (not where I choose to get my doctrinal =
teaching, but the scenes where Christ defends Mary of Magadala -- "she's =
with me now" -- really resonates with this sinner and recipient of much =
grace)
Belatedly, songs would have to include a hymn (Holy, Holy, Holy); a =
bluegrass standard (Allison Krauss', Down to the River); and a pop =
fave-rave from my misspent youth (anything by Elvis Costello, Nick Lowe, =
Cindy Lauper, Chrissie Hynde or Blondie)
Whew. Too much culture. Time to go watch something crass. I think =
"The Practice" starts in 20 minutes . . .=20
Enjoying a nice change of pace,

Dear Visionaries:
At the risk of sounding like a high school reporter for the school =
paper, I had so much fun reading about everyone's favorite music - that =
I can't resist asking about films. (Sorry, but it is my sense that it is =
one way of making us individuals beyond the typed word.) Picking a =
favorite movie is impossible for any of us that are film buffs (I am a =
total sucker for what Joan and Melynda call the "costume drama" - think =
"The Lion in Winter" or any David Lean film - but especially "Passage to =
India". And, I never get tired of "A River Runs Through It", or "Steel =
Magnolias".=20
Anyway, there are sequences in a movie, regardless of the overall =
merit of a particular film, that are defining moments, either for the =
message they send, the acting, or the technical achievement. (Good =
heavens, this sounds like an Oscar nomination, and I'm no BIlly =
Crystal.) So my question is what is/are your very favorite film =
moment(s)?
My own all time, sends chills up my spine, makes me want to leap into =
action and do the right thing no matter the odds, favorite film moment, =
occurs in Casablanca, when Vicktor Lazlo leads the Free French in =
singing La Marseillaise. For me, a light bulb went on and it made two =
lifelong points for me: NEVER identify with the oppressor and one =
person with courage can make a huge difference.
Anxious to learn what you folks choose,
Rose Huskey
Once you lose integrity everything else is easy.
