Movies Recently added: Goodbye Mr. Chips, Chariots of Fire, The Trouble with Angles, Metropolitan

 Added 4 more movies to the collection from the 100 movies every Catholic should see list.  The movies highlighted in yellow are from that list.


Goodbye Mr. Chips is one of my favorites.  Been meaning to add this one for a while.  Since most who are reading this are teachers by vocation, this is probably an inspiring movie to watch before the school year or at the start.  Completely clean and family worthy.

Chariots of Fire - also worthy of watching with the whole family.  There is a male bare backside in the locker room, and there are some adult elements, but still very watchable.  

The Trouble with Angels -- this too is family friendly.  I did not have a favorable memory of this movie, but rewatching I did love it.  Some folks will have to talk to their kids about smoking and the not listening, but what comes in the end is inspiring.  Very much worth a watch and a surprise favorite of this past month.

Metropolitan - Whit Stillman's somewhat autobiographical film about the aristocracy.  Worth watching, probably for 16 yr olds and up.
