Yes

He's got a social group of Bears he sees movies w/ & I'm THRILLED that he's getting out more.

His take on it was that it was all about "did he or didn't he" w/ the movie being rather manipulative in giving out info to keep the tension working. He felt the racial tensions of the time were seriously downplayed, & the view of sexuality was a little too sophisticated for the period, but those are all issues to which we're pretty sensitive. I dunno, maybe it's my own perceptions of how you each described it that are really. In any case, he thought the performances were uniformly excellent, w/ serious kudos going to the "innocent" nun.
