rachel's Favorite Movies
The Count of Monte Cristo
PG-13
Truly inspiring! amazing! i love this movie. one of my all-time favorite. What touched me most was that when Dantes struggles deeply with his belief in God yet he moved and experienced mature faith. The priest confesses..."when they asked me about the treasure in Sparta, i lied". "you lied?" Dantes asks. "I'm a priest, not a saint". Then he told him how to use the map to find the treasure. "When you escape," the priest continues, "use the treasure for good. Only for good." "No," Dantes says angrily. I will surely use it for my revenge." The priest says, "This is your final lesson. Do not commit the crime-(the priest struggles for a breath)for which you now serve the sentence. God said, "Vengeance is mine". Dantes says, " But I don't believe in God." "It doesn't matter," the priest responds with a smile. "He believes in you." WOW! i love that!!! "KING'S TO YOU, ALL!!!
One Night With the King
PG
Cinematography and sets look great. Dupont is lovely and sweet. King Xerxes asked, "Tell me Esther of Susa, who are you really? Tell me of your people. Teach me of your ways. Then Hadassah said, "it takes the glory of God to conceal a matter, and the honor of kings to search it out." That was a great story line! But her famous verse "I go in unto the King, which is not according to the law: and if I perish I perish" (Esther 4:16) made her a legend. Bought one for myself and watched it several times. never get tired of it.
