This week, we showed several clips of Jesus in the movies.
One was a great scene from The Boat That Rocked (stolen shamelessly from Luke Walton's excellent talk at Greenbelt 2011) and there was also this amazing clip from Doubt where a priest accused of plying a child with wine is confronted by a steely Meryl Streep.
Two great bits: when he demands to know what she has seen, and she says that's irrelevant. And the clash of proof versus certainty where she declares, with terrifying power, "I have my certainty." It's one of the best explorations of faith in the visible you'll ever find at the flicks.
