Well, C of E congregations vary from basically full-blown catholic (my village church had parts of the liturgy in Latin well into the '70s) to happy-clappy evangelicals who would fit in at a White House breakfast. But 99% of people who put C of E down on forms are basically agnostic and just do christenings and weddings because church is where you do such things in the English countryside.
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So WotW has been getting pretty good reviews, except for the review in Salon ( Stephanie Zacharek hated it): [link]
Does Stephanie Zacharek have a bug up her butt? Or does she have some Spielberg-related childhood trauma? Or is she right?

She doesn't like the current trend for very gloomy self-consciously serious blockbusters (see her Batman review).
