I had this idea last year to feature movies on Friday nights during Lent. I wrote posts as if I were the co-pilot of a plane flying passengers for YIMCatholic airlines. Remember those?
Well this year I'm not the co-pilot any more. But I still want to share movies with you during Lent. I've got a neat collection of films for us this season starting with one of my all-time favorites (as long time readers know well). Kenneth Branagh's version of William Shakespeare's Henry V.
A long time ago, when England was still Catholic, there was a great king. The Hundred Years War lasted, ahem, a long time. The Battle of Agincourt was a miracle (for the British). And simply the "Best. Speech. Ever." is right here too!
What's for dinner tonight? Pescado el Horno, of course. And after dinner, if you haven't given up popcorn for Lent, you can enjoy that along with the movie. Here is a taste,
By order of the king, get thee to the video store, a library, or Netflix!
