Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Doubt (2008)

Near-perfect movie, marred only by the very last line -- I mean, whoa, it's terrible -- delivered by Meryl Streep (reminded me a bit of the final "rat scene" in The Departed. Yeah, we GET it).

Wonderful performances by absolutely everyone and enough uncertainty built into the script that my son Nathan (who watched it with me) and I argued animatedly for our respective versions of the "truth" afterwards.
