Salon.com offers a slideshow of The Ten Worst-Reviewed Movies . I’m relieved to say that I’ve seen none of them.
Something I didn’t know till recently: Joe Eszterhas, writer of one of the movies on the list, which is supposed to be horribly written and morally vile at the same time, Showgirls , had a conversion experience later and returned to the Catholicism of his youth. The story is recounted in his book Crossbearer . Here is an interview with him .
If you have any additions to the list, or happen to have read Eszterhas’s book, please comment.
While I have you, can I ask you something? I’ll be quick.
Twenty-five thousand people subscribe to First Things. Why can’t that be fifty thousand? Three million people read First Things online like you are right now. Why can’t that be four million?
Let’s stop saying “can’t.” Because it can. And your year-end gift of just $50, $100, or even $250 or more will make it possible.
How much would you give to introduce just one new person to First Things? What about ten people, or even a hundred? That’s the power of your charitable support.
