I was thinking of "Chariots of Fire" just yesterday. It was a great movie.

And then we have films like "Alive," also on top of a snowy mountain, which presented cannibalism as an appropriate solution for a desperate situation. (Shanley's career has never recovered.)

ALIVE was an example of a proper moral decision, IMO.

Cannibalism is anathema to us, but when it is needed to survive, and it requires no killing or harm by the survivors, it has to be utilized.

Since you're here, you might as well read through my posts and correct my explanations of calvinist doctrine. (If they're wrong, then give me only few lashes....I was actually trying to fairly represent the theology in an adequate way. :>)
