RThe Lesser Evil"The Lesser Evil" is a 1998 film starring Colm Feore, David Paymer, Tony Goldwyn and Arliss Howard. It's very well directed by David Mackay, and the script by Jeremy Levine and Steven Schultze is excellent. The film starts at a funeral presided over by a priest (Howard) who then tells the story in flashback. As teenagers, four buddies - Ivan (the priest, played as a young man by Marc Worden), George (Alan Scott/Paymer), Derek (Jonathan Scarfe/Feore) and Frank (Steven Petrarca/Goldwyn) are being crazed, drunken, out of control lunatics in the woods when George (Adam Scott/Paymer grown up) shoots into a car, gravely injuring the driver. The driver has a shotgun on his lap. He also has something else, which is revealed later in the film. The kids become completely hysterical and, as the man isn't dead but seems close to it, they attempt to rush him to a hospital. Then they change their minds and take him back to the woods, where he dies hours later, helped along by one of them when they see police lights.Twenty years later, the gun that killed the man has surfaced, and the police question its owner, Derek (Feore), who has called them all together. George has become an attorney, Frank a police officer, Ivan a priest, and Derek's business is failing. He has made a mess of talking to the police and is a wreck. Ivan thinks they should go to the police and tell them what happened all those years ago, though they had all made a pact to protect George and keep quiet. Then they realize that George has been getting everything on tape and that Frank has been keeping a big secret from them all these years.Fascinating story of the ramifications of guilt even after "getting away" with something and how guilt molded the lives and personalities of each man and changed their relationships with one another. In that way, it's a tiny bit like "Mystic River." With Colm Feore in it, the acting can be nothing less than spectacular. He is one of my favorite actors, having seen in perform at Stratford in Canada several times. The leads are all excellent, and the young men who play them as teens are superb.There's a twist at the end. You won't want to miss this superlative drama that could only come from an independent filmmaker, as Hollywood is too busy with cartoon characters and blowing up things.

RI enjoyed the movie "Joshua". It was based on a series of rather good books. I thought Tony Goldwyn was excellent.

RFor fiction there is a good allegory out by an indie author named Geno Allen, it is called Treasures of Darkness Treasures of Light - Through the Dark Wood. Not specifically "Christian" per se though the author is a Christian. It has spiritual allegory though like Lord of the Rings/Narnia. You can find it on Amazon and download it to Kindle, PC, or Mobile device by downloading the Kindle App. If you are looking for more non fiction - you could try Blue Like Jazz - Donald Miller, Confessions of a Reformission Reverand Mark Driscoll, Forgotten God by Francis Chan, How Now Shall I Live - Charles Colson (this book is huge and a bit heady), Extravagant Worship - Darlene Zschech, Just Walk Across the Room - BillHeibel, Mere Christianity or The Great Divorce by CS Lewis ... to name a few. Also... You would probably like Wayne Coerdiero Books which you can find on www.enewhope.org in their online store.For movies - You could try Joshua, (Tony Goldwyn and Jon Purdy), Rust (Corbin Bernsen), What If (Kevin Sorbo), Facing the Giants, Fireproof, Courageous, Christmas with a Capital C, The Shunning, Extreme Days, The Book of Ruth (Carman is in it), To Save a Life, Soul Surfer, Left Behind Series, The Second Chance, The Climb, Billy: The Early Years, The Woodcarver, The Encounter, The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry, WWJD, No Greater Love, and pretty much any movie within the last 10 years with David A.R.

RThat is probably "My Baby Just Cares for Me" from the play and movie "Whoopee!" (music composed by Walter Donaldson, lyrics by Gus Kahn). In the film, starring Eddie Cantor (who also starred in the play), Eddie did the singing with The Goldwyn Girls, and Ethel Shutta performed both the dancing and accompanying vocals.My Baby Just Cares for Me was one of three hit songs from the 1928 musical Whoopee, starring Eddie Cantor and Ruth Etting. It is best known as the signature tune of singer and pianist Nina Simone. Nat King Cole also made a hit recording.Simone recorded the song in 1958 for her debut album, Little Girl Blue. The track remained relatively obscure until 1987, when it was used in a UK television commercial for Chanel No. 5 perfume. To follow up this exposure, the track was released as a single by Charly Records, entering the UK Singles Chart on October 31, 1987 (1987-10-31) and becoming, at Number 5, one of Simone's biggest hits almost nineteen years after her previous chart entry. A claymation music video was produced by Aardman Animations and directed by Peter Lord.George Michael arranged and recorded a version of “My Baby Just Cares for Me” for his 1999 album Songs from the Last Century. Cyndi Lauper made her own arrangement of the classic tune and released it on her 2003 album "At Last." It has also been recorded by Nat King Cole, Amanda Lear, Mel Tormé, Mary Wells and Alex Chilton. Frank Sinatra recorded an up-tempo version of this song for his 1965 Reprise album, Strangers in the Night.In the Woody Allen movie "Everyone Says I Love You," there is an extended musical dance scene of the song performed by Edward Norton and Natasha Lyonne in Harry Winston, the jewelry store. Holden (Edward Norton) brings his soon-to-be sister-in-law Djuna a.k.a. D.J. (Natasha Lyonne) to pick out an engagement ring for his fiancee, Skylar (Drew Barrymore), and the song breaks out.Also recorded by:Lorez Alexandria; Ann-Margret; Louis Armstrong; Count Basie; Tony Bennett; Steve Blackwood; Pat Boone; Les Brown; Julie Budd; John Bunch; Cornell Campbell; Eddie Cantor; Cap Pela; Mindy Carson; Kate Ceberano & Her Septet; Clockwork; Holly Cole; Natalie Cole; Bing Crosby; Bob Crosby Orch.; Vic Damone; Del Rubio Triplets; Marlene Dietrich; Tommy Dorsey; Bob Dukoff; Ted Fio Rito; Jackie Gleason; Buddy Greco; Woody Herman; The Hi-Lo's; Al Hirt; Charles Holden; Tab Hunter; June Hutton; Indigo Swing; Harry James; The Jive Aces; Jive at Five; John Labelle; Sheila Landis; Janelle Lauer; Cyndi Lauper; Ranee Lee; Mary Lofstrom; Julie London; Frankie Lymon & the Teenagers; James McBride; Metropolitan Roof Orch.; ..... and others.The Nina Simone lyrics are:My baby dont care for showsMy baby dont care for clothesMy baby just cares for meMy baby dont care for cars and racesMy baby dont care for high-tone placesLiz taylor is not his styleAnd even lana turners smileIs somethin he cant seeMy baby dont care who knowsMy baby just cares for meBaby, my baby dont care for showsAnd he dont even care for clothesHe cares for meMy baby dont careFor cars and racesMy baby dont care forHe dont care for high-tone placesLiz taylor is not his styleAnd even liberaces smileIs something he cant seeIs something he cant seeI wonder whats wrong with babyMy baby just cares forMy baby just cares forMy baby just cares for meRefrainMy baby dont care for showsMy baby dont care for clothesMy baby just cares for meMy baby dont care for cars and racesMy baby dont care for high-tone placesLiz taylor is not his styleAnd even lana turners smileIs somethin he cant seeMy baby dont care who knows itMy baby just cares for meMy baby dont care for showsAnd he dont even care for clothesMy baby just cares for meMy baby dont care for cars and racesMy baby dont care forHe dont care for high-tone placesI wonder whats wrong with babyMy baby just cares forJust says his prayers forMy baby just cares for me.

RAfter settling their affairs, Emma (Monica Potter), John (Tony Goldwyn), and their daughter Mari Collingwood (Sara Paxton) head out on vacation to their lake house. Shortly after arriving, Mari borrows the family car and drives into town to spend time with her friend Paige (Martha MacIsaac). While Paige works the cash register at a local store, she and Mari meet Justin (Spencer Treat Clark), a teenager passing through the town who invites them both back to his hotel room to smoke some marijuana. While the three are hanging out in the hotel room, Justin's family members return: Krug (Garret Dillahunt), Justin’s father; Francis (Aaron Paul), Justin’s uncle; and Sadie (Riki Lindhome), Krug’s girlfriend.Krug shows Justin a local newspaper that has Krug’s and Sadie’s pictures on the front page, and which explains how Sadie and Francis broke Krug out of police custody and killed the two officers that were transporting him. Believing it too risky to let Paige and Mari go, Krug kidnaps them and uses their vehicle to leave town. While Krug searches for the highway, Mari convinces him to take a road that leads him to her parent’s lake house; Mari then attempts to jump out of the vehicle, but the ensuing fight amongst all the passengers causes Krug to crash into a tree. Frustrated by Mari’s attempts to escape, Sadie and Francis proceed to beat Mari as she crawls away from the wreckage. Krug attempts to teach his son to "be a man" by forcing him to fondle Mari’s breasts. When Justin refuses Krug decides to rape Mari. Paige begins insulting him to get him to stop, which causes Krug to pause momentarily only to stab Paige with his knife. As Mari watches Paige bleed to death she is raped by Krug. Afterward, Mari musters enough strength to escape the group and make it to the lake so that she can swim to safety. Before she can swim far enough Krug shoots her in the back, leaving her to bleed out in the lake.A storm forces Krug and his gang to seek refuge with John and Emma, whose home is nearby. Justin realizes that they are Mari’s parents, and intentionally leaves a necklace Mari was wearing on the counter to alert them about their daughter. When John and Emma find Mari barely alive on their porch, along with the necklace from the counter, they realize that the people who did this to Mari are in their home. As they try and find the key to their boat, so that they can take Mari to the hospital, they decide to get revenge on those responsible. When Francis happens upon Mari he is attacked and killed by John and Emma. When the couple goes after Krug and Sadie they find Justin in possession of Krug’s gun; Justin gives the gun to John so he can kill Krug. Sadie awakens and interrupts John, allowing Krug the chance to escape the couple where he pieces together that they are Mari’s parents. After Emma shoots Sadie in the head, John runs after Krug. With a combined effort from Emma, John, and Justin, Krug is knocked unconscious. John paralyzes Krug from the neck down, and leaves him to die with his head in an active microwave; then he, Emma, Mari, and Justin take the boat to the local hospital.
