“Rudy” Indicted For Stock Fraud
No, I mean, I love Sean Astin, and everything, but I was in the Catholic school system from second through thirteenth grade (Canada, you know), and was therefore forced to watch “Rudy” on rainy days at least sixteen, seventeen times.
No movie is more frequently screened for innocent young Catholic children than “Rudy.” It’s like a G-rated “Passion of the Christ.”
Me, I would have preferred “A Man For All Seasons,” which, despite being an apologia for the awful Thomas More (he burned people, you know! alive!), is a brilliant piece of playwriting by Robert Bolt.

For some reason I have always confused “Rudy” and “Powder.”

At least you didn’t have to watch “The Red Balloon” on every rainy day or indoor class gathering (public school). Traumatized by the cruelty in that film to this day. How I wanted to shout, “Leave the balloon alone, you little fuckers!”

What about Saint Ralph? My dad makes me watch that movie with him a lot and it involves both Canadians and Catholics. Plus, it’s for children. The three C’s!
