Luminous Cinema

So rarely do we get to see, 
these days, 
a truly brilliant use 
of cinematography 
coupled with 
the most worthy 
of subject matters 
as well...
This is one of the few cases 
to come to mind 
in recent times:



DES DIEUX 
ET 
DES HOMMES 
(Of Gods And Men) 
A title that, 
at first glance, 
might have seemed 
highly pretentious - 
but it is not at all 
for it takes its roots 
in The Word: 
alas, it sins in pluralizing GOD 
and then placing Him second 
(as it is, the French title is, 
really, "Des Hommes et Des Dieux"
- what the h...?!?)


This movie 
redeems many a career: 
starting with 
lead actors 
Lambert Wilson, 
Michael Lonsdale 
and also 
Olivier Rabourdin. 
The likes of 
Jacques Herlin, 
sublime as 
Frère Amédée, 
and Loic Pichon, 
also find here 
the roles of their 
respective 
careers.
The directorial work 
is perfectly fit 
for the tale retold here:
the story of heroic 
courageous 
and luminous 
-indeed-
fortitude 
in the face of 
terrorism 
and savagery.
And all of it fueled 
by that most  
wonderful 
sustenance 
of all - 
FAITH.

I cannot say enough 
about this movie, 
verily - 
so I invite all 
to see it 
ASAP.
Here is the preview:
