It's a MUCH needed R&R with my wife tonight. What movie?!

I love you all!

"The Exam"
Lou Midgley 08/20/2020: "...meat wad," and "cockroach" are pithy descriptions of human beings used by gemli? They were not fashioned by Professor Peterson.

LM 11/23/2018: one can explain away the soul of human beings...as...a Meat Unit, to use Professor Peterson's clever derogatory description of gemli's ideology.

In Bruges. A fascinating investigation of the atonement. And very funny and irreverent at the same time as deeply serious about religious ideas.

In Bruges is very good.

I was absolutely bowled over by the seriousness with which the concepts of evil/sin/guilt/forgiveness/atonement etc were taken.
