As noted in recent episodes of “The Eagle and Child”<\/a>, my co-host Matt has a pretty dire knowledge of movies. For example, he has only recently been introduced to the Star Wars<\/a> and Indiana Jones<\/a> franchises. This Christmas was his first time watching It’s a wonderful life<\/a>\u00a0(or “Winter Wonderland” as he insisted on calling it…). Put simply, Matt has\u00a0had some major flaws in his education…<\/p>\n Since one of the great Spiritual Works of Mercy is “Instructing the ignorant”, I could hardly call myself a good Christian if I didn’t attempt to remedy these serious\u00a0deficiencies. So, with that, these are my “must-see” movies. The basic rule of thumb I’ve used is: would I judge someone if I found out they hadn’t seen these movies?<\/p>\n Aliens So…what do you think I’ve missed?\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As noted in recent episodes of “The Eagle and Child”, my co-host Matt has a pretty dire knowledge of movies.
