The Case For Christ
Read more: The Case For ChristAfter I came out as an atheist decades ago, a good and well-meaning friend of mine suggested that I read Lee Strobel’s The Case For Christl. I don’t know what happened to Strobel IRL, but in the movie he was driven to his knees not by evidence, but by emotional manipulation and blackmail.

The ABC’s Of The Old Testament Part II: It’s In The Verses Edition
Read more: The ABC’s Of The Old Testament Part II: It’s In The Verses EditionThere is simply too much content in the Old Testament for one ABCs. Therefore, the honest and respectful analysis of the most violent and unhinged Testament of the Bible must continue. I will concentrate on other characters, artifacts and scripture, as well as some of the weirdest books of the Old Testament Ark Of The…

The Gene Hackman Chronicles, Volume II: The Domino Principle (1977)
Read more: The Gene Hackman Chronicles, Volume II: The Domino Principle (1977)When there are only two reasons to watch a movie, one of them better be the brutal murder of Mickey Rooney. The Domino Principle obliges. Not once, but twice, as if the cinema gods knew that in order to survive 100 of the most inexplicable minutes ever committed to celluloid, they’d have to show that…

The Unsung: Beth Jarrett, Ordinary People (1980)
Read more: The Unsung: Beth Jarrett, Ordinary People (1980)In addition to ushering in the unchecked era of narcissistic self-regard, mushy, feminized therapeutic healing, and an undying cynicism about the Academy Awards, Robert Redford’s Ordinary People remains one of cinema’s undisputed heavyweights of dubious character loyalties and directorial sympathies

Novocaine (2025)
Read more: Novocaine (2025)If you’ve ever wondered what typecasting is, I give to you Jack Quaid. Quaid is one of the stars of Amazon Prime’s series The Boys. In The Boys, Quaid plays a nerdy, lovesick man putting himself in harm’s way for the girl he loves.

Memorable Movie Scenes: Part 27
Read more: Memorable Movie Scenes: Part 27With movies like Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein, Mel Brooks accomplished the impossible, movies that could never be made today. The Frankenstein movie contained one of the greatest supporting casts ever, but one cameo appearance trumped all the rest.

The Gene Hackman Chronicles, Volume I: Loose Cannons (1990)
Read more: The Gene Hackman Chronicles, Volume I: Loose Cannons (1990)I would watch Gene Hackman read from a phone book. Or take a nap. Hell, I’d even stare intently while Gene took a shit. So it stands to reason that when presented with the opportunity to watch one of Hollywood’s finest actors turn his talents to comedy, I would welcome the chance as if being…

The Unsung: Jack, Husbands and Wives (1992)
Read more: The Unsung: Jack, Husbands and Wives (1992)Sydney Pollack is, for my money, the greatest actor who just happened to be a world class director. In addition to helming Tootsie, They Shoot Horses, Don’t They?, Three Days of the Condor, and Jeremiah Johnson, he also collected an Academy Award, even if it was for a film (Out of Africa) that didn’t quite…
