How old are your boys? How did they react?

My boys are 15, and 17.. They are ardent fans of classic film-making, and were moved beyond words.. we all sat there in total silence with most of the folks after it ended, then there were only hushed sounds and weeping throughout the theater.. They are going with me for ashes later this afternoon, they asked me to wait for them before I went to church.. Something that hasn't happened in years..

I have a pretty mature 10 year old -- what do you think? He's seen the trailers and says he wants to see it.

Since it seems that most of the kids in this formative age group (14-18) are also more conservative in nature, I find that this cinematographic experience might be a might make a profound turning point for many a young adult.

Your kids are an example of it.
