And mine....over the years.
My mother Elizabeth, has what she calls her favorite movie, it is Gone WithThe Wind. ...the story of the Old Confederacy which shall never grow old. And I have had 3 over the years. My first was The Blues Brothers, I still remember my best friend Brian and I trying to emulate Belushi and Aykrpyd. Then 25 or so years later, I was chatting with a young lady in Indiana . LEWIS YOU GOT TO GO SEE THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST. ... My goodness gracious.. THAT WAS HOW IT HAPPENED... how what happened I must now ask? How I commenced a 9 year odyssey of taking thousands around the world searching for the Holy Grail, and using a computer to do so. And then along came 2007 . That same friend and I started to play online truth or dare... You won't do that Lewis.... Really , Missy Anne? And in time , Maureen oharas portrayal of Lady Godiva became my favorite movie. And in time in 2013, I came to an epiphany about the passion of the Christ, yes it is a snuff film, I knew that, and a money maker for Gibson. But it was not based on the bible. It was based on a book written by a German nun 200 years earlier. Martin Scorsese came out and admitted the last temptation of Christ was based on a book based on a novel written by an ex communicated Greek orthodox er, to quote Paul sorvino.
And this is the story of my mothers favorite movie and mine
