<div>When I mentioned then theology being right I didn't mean the small stuff. As you and Art said, no movie gets it completely right. While I know it's not theology, per se, one example is Mary of Nazareth where Mary was portrayed as a nagging rebel and part of a gang along with Joseph.</div> <div> </div> <div>Dianne<BR><BR><B><I>Stephen Korsman <skorsman@theotokos.co.za></I></B> wrote: </div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid"> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2800.1505" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't remember a single movie that gets all the theology right. They can't even manage to quote the Bible properly. I just watched House of 9 ... the priest uses the Gospel of Thomas in his blessing of the dead ("he who is near me is near to the fire, and whoever is far from me is far from the kingdom"), and says something about "I am
the mantlepiece, the truth, and the life ...." It wasn't mantlepiece, and I don't remember the word, but it made about as much sense in the context he used it. He could have been a priest from the Order of Da Vinci, for all he managed to get right.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>God bless,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Stephen</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>--<BR>Stephen Korsman<BR><A href="mailto:skorsman@theotokos.co.za">skorsman@theotokos.co.za</A><BR><A href="http://www.theotokos.co.za/">www.theotokos.co.za</A></FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>IC | XC<BR>---------<BR>NI | KA<BR></FONT></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial;

with Kevin Costner and Ashton Kutcher. I highly recommend this movie, It is a wonderful story of self-sacrifice. The story line revolves around US Coast Guard rescue swimmers. It has no explicit sex scenes (at least I didn't think so). There is a sub-plot where one guy has an affair with someone he meets. The most graphic scene has her sitting on the side of the bed, with a robe on, and he is under a quilt. The photography is great.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>One of the preview trailers was about a movie due to come out later this year called The Nativity Story (<A href="http://www.thenativitystory.com/">www.thenativitystory.com</A>). If the trailer can be trusted it looks like a really good movie and pretty solid in theology. The problem is I've learned that you certainly can't necessarily trust trailers.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Dianne</DIV><BR><BR> <DIV> <DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#0000bf><EM><FONT
