Cinephile No. 611 "Inferno"

Dan Brown's books and the movies based upon them are fast and answers come quickly. "Angels & Demons," "The Da Vinci Code," and now "Inferno" all focus on Robert Langdon and his robust knowledge of religious icons and symbology. Throughout all three films, we are rushed from one impossible puzzle to another with nothing more than Langdon's encyclopedic knowledge as our guide. For some, this frantic pace may be too much to handle. For me, it is addictive and smart. Now, I do exercise some suspension of disbelief, because Langdon rarely gets anything wrong, but beyond that, I find these movies to fun and worth watching. Now, I should warn you, I believe "Inferno" to be the worst of three films, but still worth the price of admission. 

Be good to each other,

Hello! My name is Nathan. I've always believed I would meet that special someone in one of two places; either a record store or a book store. Maybe I need to amend? I moved to Seattle in February of 2011 from Oklahoma City (Try and not hold the Sonics/Thunder thing against me). I knew I wanted to work for a nonprofit and go to grad school. Within a couple of months, I was doing both. During the day, I work as a Fund Developer and Community Relations Manager for a nonprofit in Kent and at night I try to stay as busy as possible volunteering, trying new restaurants, finding hidden bars and exploring Seattle. The past few years has been both terrifying and exhilarating. I have done things on my own I didn’t think were within my capability. I love being outdoors. On any given weekend, I can be found hiking, on a road trip, volunteering, at a museum, seeing a movie (I see a lot of them). I am passionate about nonprofit work. I feel called to leave a mark on this world. Nothing against those who enjoy making tons of money, I just need to know I am making a difference.
