Anyone who teaches school knows that one way to connect with students is to talk movies with them. Lifeteen.com’s weekly Catholic Movie Reviews podcast is a great way to keep up with the latest screen triumphs and travesties. Host Greg Iwinski does an effective job of balancing cinematic critique with a Catholic moral and aesthetic perspective. His insights are pithy intelligent, and useful. Recent reviews include The Dark Knight, Hellboy II, Hancock, Wall-E, Get Smart, The Love Guru, and The Incredible Hulk.
At less than seven minutes an episode, this would be a great podcast to play to your students each week to jumpstart a discussion about living the Catholic lifestyle in today’s culture. I listen to it myself to help weed out the worthless from the worthwhile.
You can find the audio reviews at Lifeteen.com’s podcast page, or you can subscribe to Catholic Movie Reviews via iTunes (will open up iTunes on your computer).
Thanks for reminding me about Lifeteen.com. I had forgotten about it.
