Off the Record

admirable!

From the director of the Office for Film & Broadcasting of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops:

The film imparts an admirable message about friendship and remaining true to yourself throughout, and there are even several poignant moments.

The film contains some crass expressions, mild profanity, comedic action violence, gender cross-dressing and sexual innuendo.

Call it values clarification.

    3 competing images are vying for my attention: (1) Sonny & Cher hit single hit single: "I got you babe" (2) Cardinal Ratzinger's meditation on how much "pride and self-complacency". (3) Our friend looks like he's doing a pale imitation of Dizzy Gillespie, sans trumpet.

    The picture is priceless. Does... Nero fiddling while Rome burns... ring a bell? I'd say they are well pleased with the new arrangement of the deck chairs on the Titanic.
