Meet God at the Movies

Meet God at the Movies will discuss the 2022 French drama Driving Madeleine when it meets at 6:30pm on Monday, August 19.

As per Rotten Tomatoes, Madeleine, 92 years old, calls a taxi to take her to the retirement home where she will be living. Charles, a disillusioned driver with a tender heart, agrees to drive by the places that affected Madeleine's life. Through the streets of Paris, her extraordinary past is revealed. They don't know it yet, but they will forge a friendship during this drive that will change their lives forever.

Saint Philip’s movie discussion group gathers every month via Zoom to explore a film and plumb it for theological content in the areas of creation (what is the world of the story like); what is broken/where is sin; is there a moment of turnaround, repentance; and where is redemption or the reign of God visible.

All are welcome to join the discussions—only once, sporadically, or on a regular basis—but registration is required. You can register by emailing Mtr Mary at mary.trainor@stphilipstucson.org.

Driving Madeleine can be watched on Amazon Prime and Apple TV.
