“The Atheist”

I forgot about this. I mentioned a while back that I had been working on a film project. That was basically first semester of my college. The film is a short film, I think just under 20 minutes. It is available to watch on YouTube from the director and the mastermind himself. If you are …

2008 Oscar Predictions

A Comment on Christianity

“I know someone who teaches at a Christian school overseas, and they talked about how some of the students are amazed at how Christianity is not about a list of do’s and dont’s that will get you into Heaven and how it is about a relationship with God.” -(This comment slightly edited for spelling/grammar mistakes). …

2007’s Movies List: #19 and #18

Let’s try two more… #19: “Driving Miss Daisy” I was just recalling this movie the other day. I should rent this again to get a more informed opinion of it. Basically, it tells the story of Morgan Freeman’s character Hoke. At the beginning, Daisy Wertham (played by Jessica Tandy) is the kind of lady you …
