During my seminary training, I was taught the value the making an annual retreat when we take ourselves away from the pressures and distraction of everyday life to re-focus ourselves on Christ once again.
The Anchoress, a regular blogger on the First Things website, using a movie ("Enchanted April", 1994) offers a suggestion on how women (and I believe men too) can take advantage of their own home to make a mini-retreat for themselves. Given the stresses of the modern family life, people might benefit from scheduling a few such retreats into their lives.
Any suggestions as to other movies that might serve the same purpose as "Enchanted April" ?
