Though each day may be dull or stormy, works of art are islands of joy. Nature and poetry evoke "Sehnsucht," that longing for Heaven C.S. Lewis described. Here we spend a few minutes enjoying those islands, those moments in the sun.
Here is my review of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II. It's a long review, but the best stuff comes at the end, when I drag in Kierkegaard. :) I would love to know your thoughts!!
I found out that I made one bad mistake, however. My sister pointed out that you CAN tell what spells are used in the climactic scene, because the killing curse shoots green light, while "Expelliarmus" shoots red light. So the movie does make clear, to a perceptive viewer, that Harry is using Expelliarmus, while Voldemort is using Avada Kedavra.

Like your review of the The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, this is a theologically perceptive and profound review. Thank you!
Thank you!
