For The Bible Tells Me So
A couple weeks back — maybe even months now — both the Milwaukee LGBT Film Festival and the Milwaukee International Film Festival brought “For The Bible Tells Me So” here. My church made a group outing to both showings, but I wasn’t able to see it then. Last night while I was in Sheboygan at the synod’s fall conference, I made it to a showing at the Paradigm Coffeehouse.
Go. See the movie. Now. Why are you continuing to read this?
Watching the trailer, already fighting against spiritual warfare, I figured it would be a movie that left me saying, “Oh, gee. Situation normal. There are some crazies who can’t handle the thought of gay people, and they’re led by James Dobson and the gang.” I didn’t expect the movie to bring me to tears and leave me speechless for the better part of an evening. (And really, from me that’s the best review it can get.)
I found the trailer on YouTube and posted it below. Some showings coming up in Chicago and Madison; if anyone really wants to see this film but needs someone to go with them, I’m up for a road trip.
