The Most Reluctant Convert (2021)
An Enjoyable Evening with a Mentor and Friend
C. S. Lewis has been a significant influence in my own spiritual formation. As someone who shared a childhood akin to his which left me hating God, I was also a hard sell on Christianity. Lewis' writings gave me the freedom to ask hard questions - and how to search properly for the answers, think in unique ways and chase after non-fiction written with spice, imagination and thoroughness. Having said all this, walking with Lewis on his journey in this film was a gift. The cast's stellar performance, the rhythm of his recollections, traveling in the actual locations - it was a gift beyond hoping for.
Prodigal Son (2019)
Luminous in the Entertainment Wasteland
In an era where reality shows and shows like The Masked Singer (a Men In Black meets Muppets meets American Idol Frankenstein), this show has the dark comedic undertones, smart writing, long-term storytelling alongside character development and the perfect cast to pull it off.
Not a regular police procedural, this is layered and intelligent, never dull, always surprising and deserves multiple seasons to explore all the possibilities this powerful group in front of and behind the camera can concoct.
