From a netfriend:

Hi Folks, After recent success in looking for Movie and Music ideas I’ve been inspired to ask a follow up question…

I’m looking to have a montage of brief movie one liners or short scenes which will all have something to contribute to a Youth Convention Fear not because we shall of course obtain copyright/mechanical copyright for this purpose [whilst not assuming a smooth path!!]

The Theme of the Night can be expressed in a few different phrases….

1. Jesus/God as Maker and Shaker of Social Norms

We are looking at this in terms of being encouraged to not just ‘go with the crowd’ but to be ourselves, to live whats important and to in this case source that in Jesus call to discipleship

2. This we have distilled into a phrase ‘equality, noit uniformity’ as a way of describing what Gods Community ought to be striving for as a value or way of being

3. This theme has become the word ‘One’

So we need movie one liners or very brief scenes from films about being yourself, not just running with the mob, or where its an inclusive group or ethos, where people are valed and perhaps see things differently….

Any ideas would be welcomed… the more specific the scene the better!!

eg. thus far…

Fight Club… a few scenes

Shawshank Redemption… about gettin’busy dyin’ or gettin busy livin’

Star Wars Attack of the Clones.. battle scene and one with Anakin and Padme

Being John Malkovich… ??

Forrest Gump… “life’s like a box of chocolates…”

Priscilla Queen of the Desert… D&M conversation

BUT there are hundreds more…. even slightly tangential ideas are welcomed!!
