Casablanca

Wilson appeared in over twenty motion pictures, but won immortality for his role as Sam in the 1942 film Casablanca. For his role, he was paid $350 a week for seven weeks.

Sam is a singer and pianist employed by nightclub owner Rick (Humphrey Bogart). The Herman Hupfeld song "As Time Goes By" appears as a continuing musical and emotional motif throughout the film. Rick and Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman) regard it as "their song" and associate it with the days of their love affair in Paris. Because of their breakup and Ilsa's marriage to another, Rick has forbidden the song to be played in his club. When Ilsa appears in his nightclub she requests it and Sam acquiesces. Dooley Wilson gives a genial and warm rendition of the song. The performance is remembered for itself, as well as for its cinematic associations. The song makes Rick aware of Ilsa's presence and her continuing feelings for him. According to Aljean Harmetz, Variety singled him out for the effectiveness of the song, and the Hollywood Reporter said he created "something joyous."

"As Time Goes By"


You must remember this
A kiss is just a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by.

And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you."
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by.

Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date.
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate.
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny.

It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die.
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by.

Sleazy-Chic
A Remedy for Raunchy Teen T-Shirts

November 17, 2006


Note: This commentary was delivered by Prison Fellowship President Mark Earley.


If you spend any time near a mall or a high school these days, you've probably seen them: provocative T-shirts. Young girls walk by wearing tight T-shirts reading "Your boyfriend is a good kisser," or "Yes, but not with U!", or, "I am too hot to handle."

Good grief! Whatever happened to those T-shirts with the smiley face—the ones that said, "Have a Nice Day"?

Washington Post writer Ian Shapira says T-shirts today are "blatantly sexual . . . and often loaded with double meanings." The shirts are "emblematic of the kind of sleazy-chic culture some teenagers now inhabit." It's a culture, he says, "in which status can be defined by images of sexual promiscuity."

Teens in Washington-area high schools told Shapira that they wore the T-shirts, in part, to rebel against school dress codes that they felt were too restrictive. Others wear them to give themselves "a little edge."

Parents don't like the shirts, but they say they'd rather pick other battles with their daughters. One mother acknowledged that her daughter's racy T-shirt might give people the wrong impression about her daughter, but says: "I know that she is not sexually active. Who cares what [other people] think?"

The article caught the eye of several bloggers on BreakPoint's new blog site, The Point. The writers—some of whom have daughters of their own—tore into the piece.

Regarding that mother who didn't care what people thought about her daughter's raunchy T-shirt, blogger Catherina Hurlburt wrote: "Oh, Mom, you should care very much what people think . . . actions are birthed in thoughts and imagination. . . . The message invites a conversation. The conversation leads to flirting and suggestions. . . . [which] lead to, ahem, after-school activities—and I don't mean football practice or band," she wrote.

She's right—but unfortunately, "There are few alternatives to the dirty T-shirt trend," said blogger Christina Holder. For instance, abstinence groups design apparel "as political billboards," but they have little appeal "to adolescent fashionistas."

While fashion may not seem important to you and me as adults, it is to kids. While Christian daughters may agree that vulgar T-shirts are out, they still want edgy, fashionable clothing.

As Holder put it, "Ever since the fall, when Adam and Eve sewed fig leaves into clothing, fashion has been part of our world—whether we like it or not. Reaching the culture with the Truth means we have to find channels through the culture. Fashion is a channel in a teenager's life"—which means fashion is a field some Christians ought to enter.

What might be an "edgy" T-shirt for Christian girls? How about "Pet Your Dog, Not Your Date"? Or, "He's Leading You On," a T-shirt citing Hebrews 12:2, about how Jesus guides us. Both of those are available through Christian-run companies. Better still, mothers and daughters could get out the glitter and design their own T-shirts.

Shirts with hip, edgy messages about Christ just might attract the right kind of attention from the kids at school—one that allows teens to share, in a sleazy-chic world, the cleansing and life-changing power of a holy Christ.

And while you're at it—have a nice day!

No Longer 'Just a Kiss'
By Chuck Colson
3/4/2005

As Time Has Gone By
Note: This commentary was delivered by Prison Fellowship President Mark Earley.
"You either have a wedding or you burn down something." That was the recipe for garnering ratings during sweeps week back when the TV show Happy Days was in syndication. But no longer -- things have changed.
Today, shows like The O.C. and One Tree Hill take advantage of kisses to gain publicity -- but not just any kisses. The sweeps attraction today is the now nearly pedestrian lesbian kiss. It might be predictable, but as Virginia Heffernan writes in the New York Times, it can "transform a lackluster show into a news headline."
It's easy to think that this is the media's courtship of the gay community. But the fact is, same-sex kisses are not political statements, so much as they are exploitation. As Heffernan noted, these "controversial" storylines are "reversible": "[S]weeps lesbians typically vanish or go straight when the week's over."
Nevertheless, same-sex kisses remain attention-getters for those trying to promote acceptance of homosexuality. And recently, in a decidedly non-blue county in northern Virginia, a student-written and -directed play raised eyebrows.
The play, "Offsides," was performed at Stone Bridge High School in Ashburn, Virginia -- down the road from Prison Fellowship's offices. It's about a football player "coming to terms" with his homosexuality. It may not have received as much notice except for a scene that ended in what appeared to be a kiss between two boys as the lights went down. "People are who they are," said the student who played the main character. "Accept them. That's it." That argument always seems to be the conversation-stopper, but it doesn't have to be.
In his book Ask Me Anything, Dr. J. Budziszewski provides a rejoinder. While gays equate "love" with "acceptance," Budziszewski offers another view: "Love is a commitment of the will to the true good of the other person. . . . [A] perfect Lover [that is, God] would want the perfect good of the beloved. . . . He would loathe and detest whatever destroyed the beloved's good -- no matter how much the beloved desired it." And what destroys us -- all of us -- is sin. If we refuse to let go of it, writes Budziszewski, we say to the perfect Lover, "I bind myself to my destruction! Accept me -- and my destruction with me!"
There is nothing "loving" in condoning or promoting homosexual acts. As Virginia Delegate Richard Black said in response to the play, "This is a considerable health hazard right now. If we encourage just one child to experiment and contract the HIV virus, then we have done an enormous disservice to our children." Indeed, not only do we put them at physical risk, but at spiritual risk by turning them against who they are as God created them.
The lyrics to the old song "As Time Goes By" from Casablanca go like this: "And no matter what the progress or what may yet be proved, the simple facts of life are such they cannot be removed. . . . A kiss is just a kiss . . . The fundamental things apply as time goes by." Well, today it seems that a kiss is no longer "just a kiss," but "the fundamental things" do still apply despite our changing culture. Regardless of misplaced kisses in Hollywood or at high school, as the song says, "Woman needs man, and man must have his mate -- that no one can deny."
*******************************************
Love, from Casablanca to Brokeback
“Love is a force of nature” (Tagline from Brokeback Mountain)
I confess, I’m a movie lover. One of my favorite films is Casablanca (1942)—a story about love lost, love found, and love surrendered. But above all, Casablanca is about the courage of choosing between what one desires and what is right.
Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart) is an American expatriate who meets up with his former lover, Ilsa Lund (Ingrid Bergmann), only to find out that she’s married to a Resistance leader named Victor Laszlo. Before long, their old feelings re-ignite and Rick and Ilsa decide to leave Casablanca together to escape a Nazi dragnet. But just before they board their flight to romantic bliss, Rick executes a change in plan.
On the tarmac, Rick reasons with Ilsa about the ruin their plan would cause Victor, the Resistance, and themselves as well. With Ilsa’s eyes welling with tears, Rick hands his “letter of transit” to Victor and sends them off together to freedom.
By setting aside personal happiness for what is good and noble, Rick Blaine rises as Casablanca’s unlikely hero. In his triumph of virtue over passion, Blaine shows us the sacrificial aspect of true love—an aspect that would fade to black in modern cinema.
THE HIGHEST GOOD
In 1995, the film The Bridges of Madison County hit the silver screen to critical acclaim, quickly becoming a box office hit. The story involves Francesca Johnson (Meryl Streep) as an unfulfilled farmwife who has a torrid affair with photographer Robert Kincaid (Clint Eastwood) during a four-day weekend while her family is out of town.
As the time approaches for her family’s return, Francesca—like Ilsa of Casablanca—plans to run off with Robert for a life of love and adventure. But with suitcases packed, Francesca backs out, telling Robert, “I can't make an entire life disappear to start a new one. All I can do is try to hold on to both.”
While Francesca may seem to be a modern-day Rick Blaine, there’s a distinct difference. Whereas Rick gave up Ilsa with all thoughts of self-interest, Francesca gives up Robert because it is the only way she can have her family and Robert too. Huh?
With feet planted firmly on both sides of the fence, Francesca falls back into the role of dutiful wife and mother, and sustains her love for Robert by commiserating with another adulterous wife. Then, at life’s end, Francesca joins Robert in eternity by having her cremated ashes scattered from the bridge where Robert’s remains were dispersed years prior.
Explaining this odd request to her children, Francesca writes, “If it hadn't been for [Robert], I don't think I would have lasted on the farm . . . I gave my life to my family. [Now] I wish to give Robert what is left of me.” Francesca concludes her letter with this posthumous advice: “Do what you have to, to be happy in this life.”
Unlike Casablanca, where love is the sacrifice of personal happiness for the highest good, in Bridges personal happiness is the highest good. The road was thus cleared for an even more radical view of love.
“A FORCE OF NATURE”
Having already taken top honors in the Critics’ Choice Awards and Golden Globe Awards, and with eight Oscar nominations, Brokeback Mountain is a shoo-in for Best Picture for 2005.
To its credit, the film includes breathtaking cinematography, a moving score, and first-rate cast performances. In spite of those merits, it is strange that Brokeback has become the clear favorite in a year chock-full of great movies like Walk the Line, Good Night and Good Luck, and Cinderella Man.
At a time when the debate over same-sex “marriage” is center stage, much of Brokeback’s attention is, no doubt, due to its controversial theme: the romantic love between two men. In the minds of its enthusiasts, Brokeback joins the company of other groundbreaking flicks, like Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner (1967), that dared to challenge social attitudes.
“A ONE-SHOT THING”
But despite the expected sympathetic treatment of homosexuality, Brokeback contains a few surprises.

The first surprise is its departure from the party line regarding homosexual orientation. Instead of being a hard-wired matter of genes, the “love” on Brokeback Mountain develops after two down-and-out cowboys, Jack Twist and Ennis Del Mar, give in to an unguarded moment of passion on a cold night in 1963. With no hint of prior disposition, both men awake the next morning confused, not knowing what to call what happened.
Ennis, who is engaged to be married, insists it was a “one-shot thing.” And although Jack appears more comfortable with their dalliance, both insist they’re not “queer.” Nevertheless, the indelible memory of that night overcomes them throughout their sheep-herding summer, inflaming a desire that neither sought, expected, or imagined.
But the most damaging blow to the spin of gay advocacy comes near the film’s end: After twenty years of anguish living the double life, Ennis (recalling that Jack initiated their first intimate encounter) rails at Jack, “It's because of you that I'm like this. . . . I can't stand being like this no more, Jack!” So much for the cant of “nature over nurture.”
THE TRUTH OF CONSEQUENCES
The other surprise is the film’s candid portrayal of the devastating effects their relationship has on the lives of others. Eventually divorcing their spouses, both men become emotionally detached from their children and have difficulty forging meaningful relationships with others. Particularly touching are scenes depicting the heartbreak of Ennis’s wife and the isolation of his daughter.
Unfortunately, by the movie’s end, this is all peripheral to Jack and Ennis’s personal tragedy. The brokenness of others (for which the two shed nary a tear) is eclipsed by the pathos of Ennis in his loss of Jack. What a tragic thing, indeed, to let “true love” slip away because of social conditioning and misguided notions about family responsibility.
IDENTITY FORMATION
Of course, the film makes the usual references to the social intolerance of the day. But that is unconvincing as the destructive force in the story. Rather, the tragedy begins with one reckless choice, followed by a life controlled by sexual impulse and conflicted emotions.
I am reminded of a secular news article from a few years back. Shortly after the Columbine shootings, a group of behavioral psychologists published research findings about lifestyle formation. The goal of the study was to better understand behavior development in teens so that tragedies like Columbine could be prevented.
Their conclusion? Teens who repeatedly give into violent impulses, like bullying or cruelty, tend to develop behavioral lifestyles that find their extreme in Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris. They went on to explain that what we think about, we eventually act upon; what we act upon (especially if pleasurable), we will repeat; what we repeat, will form habits; those habits will shape our lifestyle, and our lifestyle will determine our character and how we view ourselves and how others view us.
Brokeback Mountain reveals the same trajectory for Jack and Ennis: two simple men whose childlike existence is turned inside-out after giving into one impulse. Once over their initial shock, they fall ever deeper into a lifestyle that leaves them bewildered, conflicted, and lonely.
A NORMALIZING VEHICLE
However, my main concern over Brokeback Mountain is that it normalizes homosexual behavior. It does so in several ways: First, the use of an artistically crafted film marketed for public consumption brings gay sex to the forefront of social consciousness; next, the selection of the American cowboy—an icon of masculinity—serves to show that even manly men have homosexual (i.e., normal!) urges; then there’s the idyllic Wyoming setting, where Jack and Ennis spark their passion, juxtaposed against a stressed-out suburbia where spousal sex is interrupted by colicky kids.
For those hitherto constrained from homosexual experimentation because of conscience or confusion, Brokeback’s tagline rings: “Love is a force of nature.” Wrapped up in that pithy jingle, is advice and warning: Love is beautiful in whatever form it comes. You can’t resist it anymore than you can resist gravity. Just give love a chance, and thank goodness we’ve come so far since 1963!
Over and against that enlightened notion stands Paul’s enduring reminder:
Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders . . . will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. (Emphasis added)
A LONG WAY FROM CASABLANCA
The celluloid road from Casablanca to Brokeback Mountain reveals just how far we have “progressed” in our understanding of love. In just a few decades love has changed from sacrificing desire for the greater good, to indulging in desire for personal happiness, to obeying desire—or else!
It is the ultimate irony that, in the age of moral autonomy, the sirens of sexual liberation have led us not to freedom, but to slavery. As Woody Allen shrugged when questioned about leaving his wife, Mia Farrow, for her much younger adopted daughter, “The heart wants what the heart wants.”

Verse of the Day



* * * Four Important Things To KNOW: #1) For ALL (Americans, Muslims, Jews, Catholics, Hindus, Buddhist, Asians, Presbyterians, Europeans, Baptist, Brazilians, Mormons, Methodist, French, etc.) have sinned & fall short of the glory of God. #2) For the wages of above (see #1) are DEATH (Hell, eternal separation from God, & damnation) but the Gift (free & at no charge to you) of God (Creator, Jehovah, & Trinity) is Eternal Life (Heaven) through (in union with) Jesus Christ (God, Lord, 2nd Person of The Trinity, Messiah, Prince of Peace & Savior of the World). #3) For God so greatly loved & dearly prized the world (Americans, Muslims, Jews, Catholics, Hindus, Buddhist, Asians, Presbyterians, Europeans, Baptist, Brazilians, Mormons, Methodist, French, etc.) that He even gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, that whosoever (anyone, anywhere, anytime - while still living) believes (trust in, relies on, clings to, depends completely on) Him shall have eternal (everlasting) life (heaven). #4) Jesus said: "I am THE WAY, THE TRUTH, & THE LIFE. No one (male/female - American, Muslim, Jew, Catholic, Hindu, Buddhist, Asian, Presbyterian, European, Baptist, Brazilian, Mormons, Methodist, French, etc. ) comes (arrives) to the Father (with GOD in Heaven) EXCEPT BY (through) ME (no other name). *** This wonderful loving GOD gives you the choice - - - (Rev. 3:20) {Please note that church membership, baptism, doing good things, etc. are not requirements for becoming a Christian - however they are great afterwards!!!} *** Jesus said, "Wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction (Hell, damnation, eternal punishment), and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life (Heaven, eternal happiness, forever with God), and only a few find it.

P U R P O S E
But these are written so that you may
believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the
Son of God, and that by believing in
Him you will have life. Jn 20:31

Seek the Lord while He may be found;
call on Him while He is near. Let the
wicked forsake his way and the evil
man his thoughts. Let him turn to the
Lord, and He will have mercy on him,
and to our God, for He will freely
pardon. "For My thoughts are not
your thoughts, neither are your ways
My ways," declares the Lord. "As the
heavens are higher than the earth, so
are My ways higher than your ways
and My thoughts than your thoughts.
As the rain and the snow come down
from heaven, and do not return to it
without watering the earth and making
it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed
for the sower and bread for the eater,
so is My word that goes out from My
mouth: It will not return to Me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire and
achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
You will go out in joy and be led forth
in peace; the mountains and hills will
burst into song before you, and all the
trees of the field will clap their hands.
Instead of the thornbush will grow the
pine tree, and instead of briers the myrtle
will grow. This will be for the Lord's
renown, for an everlasting sign, which
will not be destroyed." Is 55

O Lord, you have searched me and you
know me. You know when I sit and when
I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar.
You discern my going out and my lying
down; you are familiar with all my ways.
Before a word is on my tongue you know
it completely, O Lord. You hem me in -
behind and before; you have laid your
hand upon me. Such knowledge is too
wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.

Where can I go from your Spirit? Where
can I flee from your presence? If I go up
to the heavens, you are there; if I make
my bed in the depths, you are there.

If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.

If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide
me and the light become night around
me," even the darkness will not be dark
to you; the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you. For you
created my inmost being; you knit me
together in my mother's womb. I praise
you because I am fearfully and wonderfully
made; your works are wonderful, I know
that full well. My frame was not hidden
from you when I was made in the secret
place. When I was woven together in the
depths of the earth, your eyes saw my
unformed body. All the days ordained
for me were written in your book before
one of them came to be.

How precious to me are your thoughts,
O God! How vast is the sum of them!
Were I to count them, they would
outnumber the grains of sand. When
I awake, I am still with you. Search me,
O God, and know my heart; test me
and know my anxious thoughts. See
if there is any offensive way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting.
Ps 139

But indeed for this purpose I have raised you up,
that I may show My power in you, and that My
Name may be declared in all the earth. Ex 9:16


When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of Glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride.

Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a present far too small:
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.
- - Isaac Watts
