Saturday's Warrior
- Commentary: Under construction.
No, I'm not a Mormon, nor anything religious, for that matter, but I am always curious about religious movies, including those that are promotional. Although I haven't yet seen this one, from what I've read about it, it is surely promotional of the LDS faith. That should be fun! Of course, I'll report back.
BTW, although the review attached to the title of this post is of the 2016 remake of the original play and this movie is a filmed version of a 1989 stage production, the review is interesting and revealing about the play, regardless of how it was made. It was also the most complete review I could find, and, a big plus, it's by a querulous Mormon.
