The Parable Of The Prodigal Sales Guy

Another one of those church flicks I was "invited" to go see, and which I was totally free not to go see, as long as I also didn't mind getting thrown out of the house I was living in at the time. On the one hand, it was about as subtle as the Soviet censors' Creative Writing Academy. On the other hand, it could have been worse--some parts of it were interesting, and at least it did have a clearly defined story arch...albeit the rigidly pre-ordained kind. I dunno, I guess I find the South and Southern people to be somewhat interesting, even though I've never been down there. It just would have been nice if the writers had let the people be people, instead of props in God's plan.
