	Amen
		Costa-Gavras takes a fl-and-white approach to the events that are depicted in "Amen." He stays true to Gerstein's story but takes some liberties in telling of the involvement, or lack thereof, by the Vatican in protesting the death camps.
		I had only seen the actor in the recent rendition of "Solaris" (in which he gave a notable perf in a small role) and was bowled over by the intensity and passion he gives to Kurt Gerstein.
		The director of such hard-hitting political dramas as "Z" and "State of Siege" has had a spotty filmography since 1982's "Missing." Costa-Gavras returns to full potency with this masterful film, an examination of culpability as well as the biography of a little known figure whose story deserves to be told.

		By centralizing these characters' comedic struggles, Amen proved a successful parody, satirizing as well as exploring the everyday workings of their church, from service to choir to congregation.
		Focusing primarily on the apparently endless conflict between the Deacon Ernest Frye and the Rev. Reuben Gregory, Amen was able to capitalize on the humorous dissimilarities separating these perpetually arguing characters.
		Additional characters included Rolly Forbes, the church's spunky elder church board member and sisters Casietta and Amelia Hetebrink, all adult church members who frequently made humorous and sarcastic contributions to the show, most often at the expense of the Deacon Frye.

		According to a sealed search warrant affidavit, the boy was scheduled to submit a 24-hour urine sample for a creatinine clearance test, which allows his doctor to monitor the health of the youngster's remaining kidney.
		When she returned, she discovered "the container of [the boy's] urine was almost empty, though it had been full before they stopped at the restaurant." The mother told detectives that when she questioned Amen about missing urine, "Vinny told her that he accidentally knocked it over and spilled the contents," according to the affidavit.
		Instead, she believed that Amen dumped most of the urine to stymie the test and keep Jackson's provision of alcohol to the 13-year-old a secret.
