Ariel at BitterSweet Life tells me that they’re making a movie based on one of my favorite books, A Severe Mercy by Sheldon Van Auken. Wow, I hope they do a good job with this one. One good sign is that the screenwriter is Barbara Nicolosi, a blogger and an intelligent one to boot. (Her blog: Church of the Masses)
Mommy Life Barbara’s recommending the movie Ushpizin (available for rental).
The movie version of Khaled Housseini’s The Kite Runner comes out in early November. I have a feeling I won’t be able to watch it because there are scenes in the book that I couldn’t watch enacted on a big screen. It was, and is, a great book nevertheless.
I’m not sure about this movie either. It’s based on the book Into the Wild by John Krakauer, and it’s about adolescent rebellion and adventure gone awry. I haven’t read the book, but I might see the movie anyway.
Autumn Rain recommends the movie Wit with Emma Thompson. I think I’ll have to add this one to my movie queue.
Has anyone seen this Snow White-goes-to-college movie, and is it rated PG-13 for something that I would not want to see? It sounds cute and funny, but I’ve been fooled before.
