Orillia Community Church [I won't post our web address since we are completely redoing it] is moving from a rental location at Orillia Christina School to our new location at the currently under renovation Cinema4 building at 64 Colborne St.
One of the things we want to do in our new facility is to show some films [church in a movie theatre - makes sense to me]. There will be a number categories of films that we will show:
The Matrix
The Seventh Seal
Babette's Feast
The Shawshank Redemption
The Straight Story
The Mission
If you have some suggestion, please add it in the comments, and add a sentence or 2 as to why you would choose that film... thanks
One of the things we want to do in our new facility is to show some films [church in a movie theatre - makes sense to me]. There will be a number categories of films that we will show:
- we will have some family friendly nights
- we may show during Advent - films that focus on the birth of Jesus
- during Lent we may show films on the life & death of Jesus
- but we also want to show some films that will cause people to think. & it's this last category that I want your suggestions / ideas. What films would you suggest that have or raise spiritual issues? Some that are currently on the possibility list [in no particular order] are:
The Matrix
The Seventh Seal
Babette's Feast
The Shawshank Redemption
The Straight Story
The Mission

Comments
Amazing Grace - see title :)
The Elephant Man
The Truman Show
Simone
Other than that..
Luther - gives a good overview on the reformation and is enjoayable.
Chariots of Fire - A classic that needs no further explanation.
Chronicles of Narnia - Another classic with great opportunity for discussion on how the story parallels Christianity..
ok
Preview first. Probably my favourite Eastwood movie so far. :)
