Mississippi Burning |
|
Using the real-life 1964 disappearance of three civil rights
workers as its inspiration, tells the story of two FBI men (Hackman and
Dafoe, entertainingly called "Hoover Boys" by the locals) who come in to
try to solve the crime. Hackman is a former small-town Mississippi sheriff
himself, while Dafoe is a by-the-numbers young hotshot. Yes, there is some
tension between the two. The movie has an interesting fatalism, as all the
FBI's best efforts incite more and more violence, which becomes
disturbing--the film's message, perhaps inadvertently, seems to be that
vigilantism is the only real way to get things done. Widescreen. 1988.

Molokai |
David Wenham
Sam Neill Peter O'Toole Derek Jacobi Leo McKern Kris Kristofferson |
This biography of Father Damien, the
Catholic priest who in 1873 volunteered for service on the eponymous
Hawaiian leper colony, doesn't hesitate to idolize its subject, and why
should it? For 15 years Damien ministered almost single-handedly to the
quarantined community, supplying what medication he could procure while
struggling against the red tape from organizations (religious and
governmental) that would rather have forgotten all about the hundreds of
people slowly dying in primitive conditions. He won some battles and lost
others, finally succumbing to the disease himself in 1888.

Newsies |
Christian Bale
Robert Duvall Ann Margaret |
A Walt Disney Musical Classic. In 1899, the pint-sized
newsboys delivering the New York papers go on strike against the unfair
practices of news magnates Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst.
Christian Bale (the child star of Spielberg's Empire of the Sun) is
charismatic as one of the older leaders of the revolt. The adult stars
don't fare as well, with Robert Duvall doddering around as Pulitzer and
Ann-Margret and Bill Pullman doing decorative duty.
BibleProbe.com: Recommended for
Christians & Jews. Excellent Musical. Excellent
entertainment. Jewish/Christian principles of "fair play" triumphs over
evil. (1992) Widescreen. 121 min. PG (although
don't know why). |

a daughter, Mahtob. The three pay a visit to the husband's native Iran, only
to learn that it is not in fact a visit but that they are there to stay, and

married an Iranian man, and as a woman she does not have many of the rights

understand, and she wants to return to her home. She is told that she may
return to the US, but must leave the daughter in Iran. DVD (1991).

Once Upon a Time...When We Were Colored
|
Phylicia Rashad Al Freeman, Jr Leon
|
Tim Reid's wonderful film about life in
the black neighborhood of Glen Allan, Mississippi, from the mid-'40s to
the dawn of the civil rights movement, is thick with terrific, inspired
actors and possessed of a mature, limpid visual style. The story is told
from the point of view of a young boy raised by his stalwart grandfather
and his kind aunt. But the collective tale of a community coming to terms
with the risks it must take to fight racism and achieve political rights
is equally important and compelling. Beautifully written , Reid's vision
is rich in scenes of ritual and community that have rarely, if ever, been
revealed on film. This is more than just a good movie; it's a watershed
event in this nation's cultural history. 1996. Widescreen (4.5
stars), 113 min. BibleProbe.com: Recommended for Christians & Jews. |

Osama |
Marina Golbahari Arif Herati Zubaida Sahar
|
This is not about Osama bin Ladin. But it is about the sort of society bin Ladin and Islam want to impose on the entire world. It takes a look at what it is like to be alive in Afghanistan when the Taliban were in power. The problem is, the Taliban were no aberration. The Taliban and their atrocities is what Islam (true Islam) desires to oppose on the entire world. It happens everywhere these murderous Imams and Mullahs take over. The Islamic fundamentalists known as the "Taliban" unleashed a regime of terror. Its first victims were its own people, particularly women. It closed down girls' schools, dismissed women from government jobs, and enforced sharia laws under which women deemed to be "immoral" are stoned to death, and widows guilty of being adulterous are buried alive. A 12-year-old Afghan girl and her mother lose their jobs when the Taliban closes the hospital where they work. The Taliban have also forbidden women to leave their houses without a male "legal companion." With her husband and brother dead, killed in battle, there is no one left to support the family. Without being able to leave the house, the mother is left with nowhere to turn. Feeling that she has no other choice, she disguises her daughter as a boy. Now called 'Osama,' the girl embarks on a terrifying and confusing journey as she tries to keep the Taliban from finding out her true identity. Inspired by a true story, Osama is the first entirely Afghan film shot since the fall of the Taliban. Golden Globe Winner. 2004 Best Foreign Language Film. 2003, widescreen. 1 hr 23 min, Afghani language with English subtitles See at Amazon here. BibleProbe.com: Recommended for Christians & Jews. |
