I just saw the much talked about film “Project Hail Mary.” It's very entertaining and uplifting and features a fine performance from Ryan Gosling. But what most intrigued me were the powerful Christian themes at play in it. The title, of course, refers to the Hail Mary pass in football, since the adventure undertaken is a fairly desperate attempt to save the planet. But it also becomes eminently clear that the reference is not just to football but to the Blessed Mother herself, for the Gosling character is undoubtedly a Christ-figure. I don't want to give away too much of the plot, but it involves a willingness to sacrifice one's life utterly in order to deliver the entire human race from disaster. It is, of course, no accident that Gosling's character is called Ryland Grace, for throughout the movie, his presence and actions constitute undeserved favor to others. A particularly intriguing character in the film is a sober German scientist who relentlessly presses Grace to make the supreme sacrifice, even when he is unwilling. She represented for me the great moral demand that presses upon us throughout our lives, continually summoning us to self-gift. A last observation: Jesus had a second in command whom he called Peter (the Rock); Ryland Grace has a very unusual sidekick whom he calls “Rocky.” I'll leave it at that.
I know lots of people say that Christianity is in irreversible decline and that we are inhabiting, at least in the West, a post-Christian society. I'm not so sure. Like it or not, we remain a Christ-haunted culture—and a film like “Project Hail Mary” makes this clear.

Poor soul has clearly never had a good one. A truly great idli is a cloud, a whisper, a perfect dream of the perfectibility of human civilisation. It's a sublime creation, a delicate, weightless morsel of rice and lentil, steamed to an ethereal fluffiness that melts on the tongue. With the right accompaniments, it is the culinary equivalent of a Beethoven symphony, a Tagore sangeet, a Husain painting, a Tendulkar century. To call such a thing "regret" is to have no soul, no palate, no appreciation for the finest achievements of South Indian culture. I can only feel pity for @Molutty_writes and @SassyDopamine !

@SassyDopamine Dosa? No words, just respect. 🙏 It's idli that tastes like steamed regret 😭

@newslaundry The movie somehow is not as off-putting as the trailer. Watch it for the visuals and the cinematography won't disappoint. A colourful addition to the Onam movie releases.
English

The Malayalam cinema makes scores of films with heart. #ParamSundari flattens all of that possibility into a generic, exhausting and offensive romcom that is neither romantic nor comic.
Why? What is the point?

@CardinalDolan Yes though Catholicism would have taken shape in India with the arrival of the Portuguese in the 15th century. The early St Thomas Christians in India followed the Eastern traditions and still do to this day.
English

People from India proudly call themselves "St. Thomas Christians" because it was St. Thomas the Apostle who went there! Today is the feast of St. Thomas the Apostle, who came a long way from "Doubting Thomas" and went on to become one of the great missionaries of the Church. @thegnewsroom
