There's something to be said about a church that offers up great old movies for the public.
That's just what St. Patrick's on Beaver Street in York is doing this Sunday as it presents "Gandhi" starting at 1:30. I first saw the 1982 film in high school.

I guess my social studies teacher thought it would be educational or something. (And yes, I guess I did learn something, namely not to pick fights with the British Army, because it seemed to always end in a thorough machine-gunning. But don't worry, he got back at them, as seen below ....)

The movie is part of a series St. Patrick's called "Movies the Matter." Future films include "Bonhoeffer" and "The Princess Bride."
