Church and a Movie

Church and a Movie

Church this morning is nurturing and healing. Our Sunday School class has grown to almost fifty members — the largest at St. Mark.

We go to see Arnold S. in The 6th Day. The movie juxtaposes the likely (cloned pets, self-driving cars, fundamentalist protests over cloning) with the unlikely (a man, confronted by his own cloning, accepts the fact without question). The director, who must be twelve, thinks inserting random, flickering images, bizarre transitions, and blurring the picture with multiple exposures is really, really, extremely cool. The popcorn entertains me more than the movie … which says something.
