Reminded me of L.A. Catholicism of the 1980s ;-)


SPOILERS ... sort of ;-)

First of all, I have to say that I loved this movie.

Second, I loved the touch that, yes, the Martin Sheen character found "fellow travelers" along the way but that they got on each others' nerves ;-). This is the "feet on the ground Catholicism" that I remembered of my years in L.A. No other religion would portray a life changing spiritual experience like this _with such honesty_ ;-).

Good job!
