In 60 Seconds: Anna Karenina! Hitchcock! More!

New 60s! David and I offer our short takes on three of the films we’ll be reviewing on tonight’s brand-new “Reel Faith” at 9pm EST on NET (watch live), plus David offers a second look at Life of Pi that’s rather different from the very mixed response I had in the last batch of 60s. (By the way, you can still catch last week’s show at the website.) Enjoy!

People Explain ‘Why I Go to Mass’

‘Why go to Mass on Sundays? It is not enough to answer that it is a precept of the Church. … We Christians need to participate in Sunday Mass because only with the grace of Jesus, with his living presence in us and among us, can we put into practice his commandment, and thus be his credible witnesses.’ —Pope Francis
