Our journey of faith through Christ's passion, death and resurrection has led us to the Risen Lord and the season of Easter. This podcast series - 'Lent and Easter at the Movies' - takes us to the cinema as Fr Robert King, our guest contributor for Eastertide, relates a series of thought-provoking movies to the day's Gospel reading.
One MP3 review is released for the Sundays of Easter and other key dates of the season.
Third Sunday of Easter
True Romance (1993)
"Clarence is left broken and he has a choice. In making his choice, he comes to realise what is most important to him - his love for his wife. That's where we're left at the end of the film. Love has taken him from a lonely, sad fantasist to a man who has discovered his reality and realises he had it already."
You can listen to the podcast using the audio player in the top right-hand corner of this page. Right-click on the link below the player to download.
Background on the film can be found at the Internet Movie Database (IMDB) .
