Rouault as Modernist Christian Artist

Peter Gay defines that late-19th- and 20th-century movement in terms of religious heterodoxy and the practice of “principled self-scrutiny.� Although Gay’s voluminous book covers a lot of ground, his criteria for modernism make it hard to distinguish modernism from the romantic period that preceded it. Moreover, Gay’s preoccupations force him to see religious modernism — as found, say, in the later poetry of T. S. Eliot — as self-contradictory.

REVIEW | Dull Flame: Shamim Sarif's "I Can't Think Straight"

You would think that a cross-cultural, cross-religious lesbian romance should have enough built-in conflict to sustain an 80-minute feature, but Shamim Sarif's "I Can't Think Straight" slumps and stretches its way from its first uninspired set piece, an engagement party for Jordanian-Christian Tala (Lisa Ray), to its mildly embarrassing closing montage, cut to, natch, Jill Sobule's "I Kissed a Girl" (hello, 1995!). As with her other feature, "The World Unseen" (released to theaters earlier this month), Sarif adapts and directs her own novel here, with Ray and Sheetal Sheth playing the lead roles. For "I Can't Think Straight," she enlists the help of co-writer Kelly Moss, but to no avail: Sarif has crafted a movie with such paper-thin characterizations and so lacking in dramatic incident that it's frankly surprising that she was working fr

Removing sculptures will not bring food on your plate

A section of people in this country who have taken the responsibility of "protecting" their religious beliefs on their own shoulders are doing so of their own volition. No one has told them to do so, but then again there would be no problem if they would educate themselves with the history first and then try to preach and practice the essence of religion, remaining within the entire gamut of the society they belong to. It is essential they take into consideration the ethnic, socio-political and cultural matrix that shape the mosaic of that society because no group can progress and prosper by remaining hostile to society.
