I sat down after lunch for a little tea break. A movie was on called “Courageous”. I remember a year ago when it was released. I had wanted to see it, as it’s premise felt oddly similar to events in my own life.
Since there was literally nothing on the TV to watch (which is also quite strange due to the fact that we have close to 200 stations to chose from), I settled in to watch it.
The movie enters into the lives of 4 policemen and one hard working Latino man named Javier, in a small Georgia town. They are all doing their best to get through the days. Then Javier loses his job. He is despondent. He asks God for help.
That’s how he meets the four police officers, and they all become friends. Tragedy strikes the group, and they all reach out to God for help.
This movie was well acted, and although it was slow at times, it was building the relationships of the five families. Rent it on Netflix or watch it on Starz this month, Here is a brief look at the movie.
Oh yeah, and I hope everyone in the USA remembered to set their clocks back an hour last night. Yes, it’s that time of the year!
Got lots of leaves raked up and had the boys over to help. We went to dinner with Mike and Karan and her parents, very nice. Today we’re off to church. Love YOU, Mel
I still have not seen Courageous now that almost the entire world seems to have seen it!! Some day … soon!!
