Death by Pie (Spoilers Obviously!)
I rented this intriguing little movie from Vulcan Video and I liked it but was confused by the ending. So the best friend of Betty supposedly poisoned the three Franklins by giving them a apple pie lace with poison. Now here is the part that baffles me, she apparently got away with it and I guess other members of the Christian community covered all the tracks. I just wished that was focused on. Forgiving the Franklins is a unique and original picture that is in the vein of Douglas Sirk. SO is it irony that Jesus who took away the original sin (apple) that the family ate an apple pie causing their demise? I am a Christian and most of the stuff in here is dead on, the church places too much emphasis on God's wrath and anger and not enough on God's love and forgivness. The church has a nasty habit of using guilt, fear and manipulation (the things Jesus preached against)to control people. So check out FTF it's different.
