While I was at the church waiting on our video to be captured to computer, I saw a copy of the short movie called Most. I had never heard of it but our youth pastor seems to have good taste in movies so I popped in the 33 minute movie while I waited. It was SO good. I cried (which, btw, I’ve been doing quite a bit to shows lately–like Grey’s Anatomy this week) towards the end. I came home to tell Scott about it and he says, oh, I’ve heard that story lots of times from pastors. It’s a story of a father and son. The father takes the boy to his work as a bridge operator. The bridge is up for a boat and the train comes early. The boy sees it and tries to put the bridge down and falls into the gears. The father finally sees the train and chooses to put the bridge down to save all the people on the train all the while sacrificing his sons life. While the train goes by, a young woman watches the man crying and he sees her. Later on it shows him trying to find meaning in life without his son and he see the woman with a newborn. The baby is smiling and they are both happy. The father is now happy that although he sacrificed his son, it gave life to many more. I’m not sure if it purposely was a metaphor for God and Jesus, but boy, the message came across to me like that. I hope our youth pastor uses it. It was amazing.
