Movie: Flags of Our Fathers

November 5, 2006 10:25 PM | permalink | comments: 0

Yesterday Pam and I saw Clint Eastwood's new movie, "Flags of Our Fathers," about the famous flag-raising on Iowa Jima during World War 2. Excellent movie with a complex structure, moving back and forth between the battle, the battle's aftermath, and present-day.

Photos from the actual battle were shown throughout the credits. Nobody left until the credits ended. It's neat when that happens.

We hadn't seen a movie since July 1--Superman.

About Me

Steve DennieCareer-wise, I've been hanging around and writing about and cheering on churches and pastors for the past 25 years as my denomination's Communications Director.
I write primarily for my own amusement. If anyone wants to eavesdrop, they're welcome to it. My heartbeat is serving God faithfully through the local church. But my posts repeatedly stray into sports, politics, movies, and other nonsense.
I've been blogging since 2004, and it's been fun. Please understand that, though I work for the United Brethren in Christ denomination, the nonsense I spew out here comes from my own semi-functional brain in a totally personal, non-official capacity. Yes, that's a disclaimer.
