(Still at the Movies)
I’m continuing to wade through The Movies, hoping to get finished with this by Mid-July and start on something else. Movies are now complete through ‘L’ (1,152 entries).

There's someone out there for everyone - even if you need a pickaxe, a compass, and night goggles to find them.

A man, he gives wood, bricks. In time, what does he get? A chapel - a place where his children can receive the sacraments. To these men, for their children to have faith, it is important.

Steve Martin as Navin R. Johnson in The Jerk
Twenty-six years buried in the deepest, darkest jungle and I still became my father.
