"A Hidden Life"

Just saw Terrence Malick's A Hidden Life this afternoon.

It closes with this quote:
"...the growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs." -George Eliot, Middlemarch


 Some films move us to worship. A Hidden Life is such a film. In this world we will have trouble, but let us take heart: Christ has overcome the world.
