What should we watch next?
What a wonderful season of movie watching we've shared. I hope you've enjoyed the films and our discussions as much as I have. For our final meeting, each film I've chosen is related thematically or formally to a film we watched this season. Below, I've listed each alongside the film that inspired my decision to include it this week. I'll explain why I chose each film at our last meeting. Happy voting! You can't go wrong with any of these films.
As always, please rank your preferences from first to last. Interactions with each film are found in Come & See: A Christian Guide to the Greatest Films of All Time. I've included the page number (for the paperback version of the book) for each film in parentheses.
This week's candidates are:
Ordet (161) in honor of The Passion of Joan of Arc
Taste of Cherry (329) in honor of The Seventh Seal
Hiroshima Mon Amour (173) in honor of Casablanca
