2020 – A Year in Movies

December 20, 2020 by Amy Welborn

I was asked to reflect on some good books I’ve read this year, and of course, my memory is such that I had no choice but to cull through this blog in order to remember, Oh, yeah…I read that….it was pretty good.

Since I was mucking about in those archives, I decided to pull out a couple more categories of posts: Those I thought were just pretty good and possibly still interesting about various topics, and those about movies – and a bit of television.

This may not be every single movie I/we watched this year…but it’s close. One that’s missing is Tenet, which I did see in the theater. Which I didn’t like much. Also The Prestige, I just realized – speaking of Christopher Nolan. Never wrote about that one, either. Or The Mandalorian, the other television event of the year.

Maybe you’ll be inspired to watch something good. Links go to my posts.

(Reminder for the delicate. I take for granted we are all adults here. No content warnings offered. You’re on your own for that.)

The excerpts below are on possessions (specifically clothing) and justice. Mother's Day at Mass: @angelusnews published a piece I wrote about one day in my trip to #Guanajuato #Mexico #catholic #faith #travel #solotraveling #travelingsolo #inspiration Today's the feast of St. Athansius. Some thoughts below, more at the link, along with link to the study guide I wrote years ago to B16's General Audience talks on the Fathers of the Church: I'm in Dappled Things this morning: Images are from the Loyola Kids Book of Bible Stories and the Loyola Kids Book of Catholic Signs & Symbols.
