Good article quotes from the Jesuit priest who worked with Hoffman while he
was filming Doubt, which coincidentally is one of my favorite movies.

The priest's full article about Hoffman is available here. His points about
the use of parables to evoke empathy is a good one. That is, IMO, the essence
of spiritual storytelling.

Dammit, I figured he was a gentle and lovely human being and these two
articles confirm this. Now it is all even a greater loss. Talent, youth and
decency all left on the bathroom floor. I haven't seen Doubt, I think it's
time.
