In the process of cleaning house, which is kind of like a dirty oven with dog hair at the moment
I came across a set of three, great, Denzel Washington movies in one box that are all about fire
One of them is called Man on Fire, and it is directed by Ridley Scott’s brother, Tony Scott
My favorite of the three, though, is Courage Under Fire, which is directed by Edward Zwick
It seems to me that in our Western literary and filmic canon we have two heroic archetypes
The Man of peace who walks on water and the Man who confronts the burning bush
And we could make it three if we include the Madonna
I watched a movie the other night called Domino, in which Téa Leoni plays a woman “on fire”
It is technically superb, and the cute little Téa Leoni does an excellent job in her role
Tony Scott is a great director, but I found the movie Domino to be a little too much like propaganda
Trying to get us all revved up for coming war in the Middle East
Not the little one in the near term

I wonder what the meanings of all of those sculptures are. In the divinity school photo there are 13 rows of 3 figures of men stacked on top of each other in the middle of far wall.
Amazing skill, all of it, but what did they intend us to think about it? What’s the message?
