comments, The Moment After
20 September 2006
I found the film well-done, entertaining, and thought-provoking. It's one I can recommend to others. HOWEVER, somebody in the production staff just hadn't done their homework before the film was made. On a number of occasions a U.S. military officer was part of the action. He was repeatedly addressed "Lieutenant" by others. The man was wearing CAPTAIN'S bars on his cap. The rank insignia are the same for Army and Marines. This may sound like nitpicking, but that is the kind of thing that can put the credibility of the rest of the production into question in the minds of some people you might like to wake up with your message.To give you an example: decades ago I read a bit of what Erich von Dänicken was publishing at that time. After finding a number of obvious historical inaccuracies in his books, I simply tuned him out as someone who hadn't researched his material thoroughly. I have found this on other occasions as well. A great book on the fallacies of evolution by the Creation Research Institute began with a glaring historical error in the first sentence. How do you expect people to listen if you don't even proof-read your stuff? Richard A. Overstreet
