There’s a secretive group of Americans out there who believe their word is law. Mostly men, though at least one woman sides with them, they are religious fanatics who believe the Constitution as originally written is a perfect document, ordained by God. To them, subsequent revisions to the laws of the land are unconstitutional, illegitimate, and most importantly immoral. They want to return to the old days, to the old ways. Keeping women in their place through having children, whether they want to or not, is key to their plan—to God’s plan, as they see it. They’ve studied and prayed all their lives, and now their time has come.
Also there was a new episode of Under the Banner of Heaven.
Sigh. “See what I did there?”, the critic asked depressively.
I reviewed this week’s episode of Under the Banner of Heaven for Decider.
