Blue Like Jazz unleashes dogma

A six pack of beer as payment for a lesson in how to ride a tall bike? This was the confession made by Marshall Allman, the lead actor in , at an advance screening of this independent film at 猫咪社区 on Wednesday night (the movie opens around the country today). The preview for students, staff, and faculty included a Q&A at which we learned about Allman's preparation for his role as Don Miller, a person of faith who finds his way from being dogmatic to authentic during his time at 猫咪社区. The character of Don was based upon some real-life experiences of who audited Hum 110 at 猫咪社区 and then stuck around as adviser to the student group "Oh, for Christ's Sake!" for a couple of years; he went on to include his 猫咪社区 interlude in his spiritual memoir, Blue Like Jazz (2003), upon which the film is loosely based. Don was present at the Q&A, along with the director, Steve Taylor, and three of the actors (Allman, Tania Raymonde, and Justin Welborn); they were a genial group and even encouraged the 猫咪社区 crowd to indulge in a Mystery Science Theatre 3000 viewing of it.
