The Star of Bethlehem

Posted in Library, Musings on April 28, 2008 | 2 Comments »

Amazing.
It doesn’t take much more than that to describe one of the most incredible DVD’s I’ve seen recently (maybe ever?). It’s one of those where after it ends, everyone sits in stunned silence for a few minutes before someone finally says, “wow, that was cool.”
