TGC Senior Editor Releases Best Movies of 2021- and They’re Rated ‘R’ For Sex & Nudity
This apostate embodies everything that's wrong with today's American church world...
Brett McCracken, the Senior Editor and Director of Communications at The Gospel Coalition released his best and favorite films of 2021 list. While there were some benign films that were relatively clean, his top 20 featured a whole bunch that were rated ‘R”, for language, violence, and frequently for scenes of sex and nudity. He openly acknowledges this, but only notes that they should be viewed with ‘caution’ and ‘discernment’:
These are the movies that, in my estimation, were the most excellent, memorable, thoughtful, theologically interesting, and redemptive releases of the year. As always, viewers should use discretion in terms of content. Though I chose only movies that are in some way edifying—depicting goodness, truth, or beauty in ways Christian viewers can celebrate—several films on my list are rated R or TV-MA and should be viewed with caution and discernment.
Here’s a few of his top 20:
As far as that last one, The Green Knight, one which the TGC head honcho describes as “the most excellent, memorable, thoughtful, theologically interesting, and redemptive releases of the year” we won’t even publish the descriptions of what it contains, as it is so coarse and graphic, but it contains several sex scenes, male and female nudity, including multiple women showing full-frontal.
It makes you wonder why McCracken would watch this scene, which we’ve been able to pinpoint arrives in the first 10 minutes of the film, and instead of turning it off, after seeing this graphic nudity, chooses instead to keep on watching, knowing that this sort of content may very well appear later in the film, but is what- amused and entertained at how theologically thoughtful this is?
Why not turn it off? This is the SENIOR EDITOR OF THE GOSPEL COALITION WE’RE TALKING ABOUT!!!
And people wonder why we say this organization is not to be trusted.
