Unsung Hero (2024)
Support this! We need Christ in theaters!!
Please get out and support this film UNSUNG HERO - we need JESUS at the theaters. The incredible Smallbone family is about incredible faith in God. Our church supports this film.
Another must-see movie is 'THE FIRING SQUAD' coming out I think August 2.
Both of these films are incredible and we must do all we can to bring unsaved people to the theaters if they won't go to church. The Apostle Paul says, "I become all things to all men to win some to Christ" 1 Corinth 9:22.
The Great Commission is not The Great Suggestion. Telling people about a Savior is the greatest thing you can do in this lifetime
Our country needs Jesus more than ever. Please support these films.
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)
3rd Best for me but like them al
The story opens with a prologue from Indiana Jones' childhood, as a boy scout in Utah in 1912. After stumbling upon a group of grave robbers, young Indiana (played with gusto by River Phoenix, who tragically died of a drug overdose in 1993 at the brink of a successful career) steals the valuable Cross of Coronado, with the intention of presenting it to a museum. As he scrambles desperately across the carriages of a moving circus train, in flight from his experienced pursuers, we come to witness the origin of some of the hero's trademarks: the fear of snakes, the bull-whip and, of course, the fedora hat.
Returning to 1938, we find Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) as the clean-shaven, tweed-wearing professor at a New England college, lecturing to his students about the lack of adventure in the field of archeology ("X never ever marks the spot"). Following the disappearance of his father, respected archaeologist Prof. Henry Jones (Sean Connery), Indiana strikes off across the world in search of him, unwittingly throwing himself into a race to discover the Holy Grail, the sacred cup used by Jesus Christ at the Last Supper. However, to make matters worse, Indiana finds that his old enemies - the Nazis - have also launched a frantic bid to acquire the Grail. Aided by museum curator Marcus Brody (Denholm Elliott) and beautiful Austrian historian Elsa Schneider (Alison Doody), Indiana must rescue his father, beat the bad guys and uncover the ultimate archaeological treasure.
'Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade' was, once again, directed by Steven Spielberg, working off a story by George Lucas and Menno Meyjes, and a screenplay from Jeffrey Boam. What ultimately makes the film such an enjoyable ride is its fantastic sense of humour, and Connery's character delivers a large portion of the comedy, whether he is smashing his son over the head with a fake Ming Vase, setting the floor alight or blasting away the tail of his own plane with a machine gun (before blaming it on the Nazis). Ford and Connery have their own share of playful father-son banter, which becomes particularly farcical when it is revealed that they have both slept with the same woman (a favourite piece of dialogue: "I'm as human as the next man"; "I was the next man!"). Denholm Elliott is also highly entertaining as Marcus Brody, who, despite Indiana's great respect for him, is so hopelessly inept that he "once got lost in his own museum."
