That is, after all, why we are described as Roman Catholics."

I remember "The last of the mohicans". It was a good and interesting movie.
I recently saw the latest Batman movie, it was entertaining. But my favorites are the epics as "The Ten Commandments" and "Ben Hur".
Also the earlier movies had better arguments.

In its book form the The Last of the Mohicans is a good story but the English in its original form is cumbersome for modern readers because it's the English of about 200 years ago when Cooper wrote the story. I like the tale because it's set in the area of NY State where I live.Iniciado por Esteban

I didn't like the newest Batman film as much as the other two in the series. It seemed a bit over-the-top and, in places, bizarre to anyone familiar with Batman legendary (i.e. Bane is turned into an anarchistic, deformed mastermind from North Africa [judging by the location of the prison where he's kept] for the movie when he's actually supposed to be a South Amerian terrorist- yes I often nitpick such things). I actually thought that the best characters were Michael Caine's portrayal of Alfred the butler and the brief appearance by Liam Neeson as Rā's al Ghūl.

Yes, I agree. For me the first film of the new saga was very good, the second was good and the third acceptable.
What happens is that when a movie is very good the people always expects that future films will be much better and usually this does not happen

Batman Begins is my favorite Batman film ever. Christian Bale did a good in it job of portraying an angry and vengeful Bruce Wayne but it was already old by the second film and stale by the third film. I think that Rā's al Ghūl should've been made to survive the first film since, probably even moreso than Joker, he is Batman's ultimate foe.
Films often begin good and wind up turning mediocre. The one exception that I can think of at the moment is The Empire Strikes Back, which was far superior to Star Wars (or any of the other films in the series- probably because George Lucas didn't direct it).

Creepy. I tried to embed the link and it came up with the OP's Youtube link (Last of the Mohicians). I watched some of this movie today, the 1977 Jesus of Nazareth.

Thanks for the link, I remember that movie, was one of the best movies about our Lord Jesuchrist together with "King of Kings" (1961, filmed in Spain), this is one of the parts I remember the most, there Jesus reads a passage from Isaiah and he says to the audience that the prophecy contained in that passage is being fulfilled before their eyes.
Some time ago I saw an American documentary film about Argentina in 1932, is very interesting and lasts nine minutes. It seeks to reflect to the American public as was Argentina at that time. I leave the link.

A short part of the finale of Unforgiven, probably Clint Eastwood's best movie, where he plays one of his best roles as William Munny- an elderly, cynical, and repentant man who was a vicious bandit and gunfighter in his youth. The conflict of him being ashamed of his past and still being a violent man at heart is pretty well-acted. The second scene is where William Munny kills Little Bill, the brutish sherrif with an exchange about William Munny being cursed to hell and saying 'Yeah'. Good movie, much more character-driven than the Dollars movies of Clint's earlier years.

Yes, that movie was very good. The characters have a more complex personality than in other western movies of Clint Eastwood.
I really liked the spaghetti western directed by Sergio Leone, my favorite is "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" (1966).
The end of the movie, is epic

King of Kings was a good movie but Jesus of Nazareth is probably the best of them all. This is a good part from it too.
