Once again, this is not about written material. But, I had the opportunity to see the movie “Monumental” on March 27th. For those of you who did not see this movie, it is something of a historical documentary. Kirk Cameron strikes out on a journey to learn about our forefathers and the origins of our country.
This was a one-time showing of this movie; so many people may not have had the opportunity to see it. However, “Monumental” opened in theatres this weekend for a one-week period in Montgomery, Alabama - Knoxville, TN - Plano, TX – Thousand Oak, CA – Cordova, TN – Vero Beach, FL. Hopefully, the movie will be carried in other theatres soon.
Now, we all had history classes in school and the textbooks and teachers presented an account of our forefathers and how this country was founded, so we all already know how the story. Why would we want to sit through yet another documentary on this subject? Well, whether or not you are a “history buff” or think you already know all about this, you will need to hang onto your hat when you see this movie. I did not like history in school, but still thought that I knew this story. You will find that original documentation tells a much different story than the one we have all been taught.
If you did have an opportunity to see this movie already, I would really appreciate your posting your comments on the movie. If you have not yet had an opportunity to see the movie, I sincerely hope that you will get an opportunity to see it.
