Never Been Thawed


I was worried that this film did not qualify under the Rules of Faithful Film Watching, but technically it did show on at least one big screen once. It is a funny film about the intersections of uber-nerd collectors of frozen dinners, zealous born-again Christians and rock and roll. Though this film feels a lot like sketch comedy scenes strung together it does work as a whole and has some big laughs. I loved the whole idea of an entrepreneur opening a chain of coffee shops called the “No Choice Café” near abortion clinics so he could capture the business of abortion protestors while they protested. It made me laugh and I even liked it better than “Saved” which follows some of the same themes and had a higher budget.
Favorite moment: The abortion protestor hassling visitors to the clinic while he eats on the terrace of the “No Choice Cafe.”
