The Most Amazing Movie I’ve Ever Seen

The Most Amazing Movie I've Ever Seen

I drove 140 miles, one way, to see a flick last night. It was so awesome that I saw it again today. It offered the most extraordinary experience of the presence of God that I have ever seen in a movie, a message so direct from Christ Consciousness that it dove into the deepest resonances of the soul. For the first time in my life, I felt that I actually saw God on the silver screen. [1]

No, it's not the movie that has topped the charts the last few weeks, the one that magnifies the dark side of Christianity, the one that I suspect that Jesus, himself, wouldn't recognize as having anything to do with his message. [2]

This movie is the other side of that coin, the lighter, brighter, interconnected-to-All-That-Is side. Unassumingly titled What the #$*! Do We Know!?  it breaks ground in consciousness, and is the most effective use of film for the uplifting of humankind that I have ever seen.

The movie braids three threads together into a lifeline thrown to humankind. The first is a story of awakening consciousness, featuring Marlee Matlin in a stunning performance as the protagonist who goes from victim to woman of wisdom. (My favorite scene is the one in which she discovers the secret of loving herself.) The second strand is comprised of snips of interviews with 14 of the world's great scientific thinkers and mystics, from Ph.D's John Hagelin and Fred Alan Wolf  to Ramtha and Dr. Marasu Emoto.  (Don't let that quantum scientific stuff scare ya, these interviews are short, insightful and entertaining.) The third thread is the stunning, multi-dimensional special effects and animation that visually describe the workings of our interior selves. In a perfect example of the film's focus on interconnectedness, these strands weave into a triune whole.

The photography is luscious [3] and the music [4] fills the soul with cellular memories of deep knowing and bliss. The experience is an invitation to claim the power of being the creative force in one's life. And this sacred journey is filled with laughter.

Last night I entered the theatre stressed from some of the outer trappings of my personal life, and more than a little concerned about world events in general. I emerged from the movie feeling empowered, at one with the Universe, with God, and with my higher self, renewed and refreshed!

What the #$*! Do We Know!? sails right through the glass ceiling of what cinema is supposed to be. For info and a great clip, go to www.whatthebleep.com.

If you live in Oregon or Washington state; Los Angeles, Juneau or Tucson, you can see this movie soon. If not, then you have the opportunity to participate in birthing this movie into your area. Producer-director William Arntz [5] was at the theatre last night for a half hour Q&A following the show. When asked about where the movie could be seen next, he said that it all depended on what viewers requested. He was unable to get it accepted into Sundance (Ironically, he notes that they did accept one on the topic of Scrabble.) And most theatres he contacted responded that the American public wasn't interested in a movie like this.

Nevertheless, the Harkin Theatre in Tempe, AZ was sold out both last night and the night before for the first time in its long history. There have been sold out showings in other cities, too. And in two months, in just a handful of theatres, over 42,000 people have seen this award winning film [6].

So Arntz is leaving it up to you. If you want to see this movie in your area, contact your local theatres. This is a perfect opportunity for the application of practical mysticism, keeping in mind that the term "sold out" has greater meaning to most theatre owners than any gobbledygook about "cosmic consciousness."

Call and email your friends and invite then to contact their local theatres, as well. That's how the film has gotten into the theatres that it is showing in now. And it's the American way, the way that "we, the people" have traditionally gotten what we want, by voicing our desires, banding together, and then making them happen.

And then you can find your own answer to the movie's question, "How far down the rabbit hole do you want to go?"
