The Green Beautiful: A Movie for Wanderers!

[Monica]

Think of the kids Monica!!! It's much better for them to see hundreds of death scenes in one movie than this.

Oh, of course! Everyone knows that violence is ok, right??

Yeah, it is really sick. I'm reminded of a time when my son was little. I was with a group of religious moms who were discussing a company called Feature Films for Families. FFF had a really good idea: They edited mainstream movies so that they'd be acceptable for children. I bought a few of their videos for my son.

Well, the moms were talking about how FFF now had an edited version of The Matrix. They had removed the entire 30-second-long, non-graphic sex scene! The moms were thrilled!

I then asked them if the 10-minute-long shoot-em-up scene had been also removed.

They looked at me blankly.

These same moms thought nothing of letting their kids play violent video games.

(I'd better quit lest I get this thread off-topic. Sorry, but that's a pet peeve of mine!)

I want to state my favorite moment from the movie. But I'm failing utterly. I'm going to have to watch it a few more times. Madame Serreau has a delightful sense humor.

Yes, we couldn't stop laughing! And it was so fast-moving that the humor was relentless!

Some of my fav scenes:

The 'presentation of dead bodies' ...the crucifix scene...the politicians who got disconnected...the doctor and his wife talking honestly...

Great stuff!

There were a few minor little nits but nothing major...overall it was great fun!
