SELECTED MOVIE REVIEWS OF INTEREST TO SECULAR HUMANISTS

Most of the mainstream media do not address moral or religious issues.  Often, discussion never goes above the level of "good guys and bad guys."  There are a few exceptions, though.  Some movies make an effort to examine modern morality or to critique religion.  These reviews include movies that have elements that are of interest from a humanist or free thought perspective.

The reviews were previously published in WASHline, the newsletter of the Washington Area Secular Humanists, P. O. Box 15319, Washington, D. C.  20003.
