without understanding their meaning? How many of them would accept Byzantine tradition on St. Joseph (his age, status as a widower, and so on)?

Judas and St. Peter in Scorsese’s “Silence” by Thomas P. Harmon
The intention of the novel and the film adaptation is not to valorize apostasy, but to shed light on the reality that every Christian is, like Peter, asked, “Are you not also one of his disciples?”
Still waiting for the movie to be shown in a local theater.

As for the show itself, it didn't grab my attention enough to make me want to watch every episode... and then there's the fact that the producers made it co-ed.

Pink/Blue
Reminded over at Unz -- How the colour pink lost its masculinity
Red is appropriate for male bathrooms, not pink. Pink is the "lighter" shade of red that is appropriate for infants and boys. Just as light blue is for infants and girls while a darker shade of blue would be appropriate for women.
Is this anyway tied to the (Byzantine) color scheme for Christ and the Theotokos, with Christ primairly clothed in red and the Theotokos draped in blue (red for humanity, blue for divinity)?

Two More on Silence
First Things: Silence: Scorsese’s Spiritual Masterpiece by William Doino Jr.
"Silence" and Apostasy by Dr. Jared Ortiz
Two elements deserve more attention if we are to understand what Endo is doing in his novel: the times when God does speak and what life is like post-apostasy.

VDare: GANGNAM And MINJOK: Reports Of Korea’s Self-Abolition Have Been Exaggerated
Mentioned specifically in the article -- the taking of foreign brides by Korean farmers (because they are not good enough for hypergamous South Korean women). What problems will their mixed children have in Korean society, and how many of these foreign brides will be able to faithfully transmit Korean language and culture?

Scanning through Fandango for movies to be released in the next 5 months, and I didn't see much that was appealing. If John Wick: Chapter 2 is as good as the first one, it should do well at the box office -- there is very little competition. There's a new Jackie Chan movie out this month; how will it do at the box office? The Lego Batman movie should do well with children, boys in particular. What about Everybody Loves Somebody, Wheeler, The Salesman, or Tommy's Honour?
Of course it's a movie featuring white-skinned Mexicans...
