Just four days since the horrific deaths of Rob Reiner and his wife, I saw Being Charlie, a 2015 quasi autobiographical effort of Rob & the son now accused of killing him:
Charlie is a troubled addict who has been in and out of rehab for years....
In the [newest] program, Charlie meets Eva, who becomes an enabler of his drug problems [Scenes of the actors sexually acting out should quickly disabuse viewers of any notions of this film having spiritual merit.]....
The next day [after being elected governor of California], David looks for Charlie. They make peace, and Charlie plans to head out into the world, pursuing standup comedy [Wikipedia].
Looking back, it is tragically apparent that neither Rob nor Nick Reiner found the "success" that they imagined for their fictional counterparts. They did [and still do] need Divine healing.
Joe Tevington is a proudly orthodox Catholic, a husband since 1986, a dad to two adult children, a grandpa to two, and a civil service retiree. He is a sign language fluent certified rehabilitation counselor with graduate degrees in deafness rehabilitation, religious studies/moral theology, & Christian counseling psychology, as well as a catechetical diploma and certificates in benefits planning and Catholic social ministry. He deeply appreciates Catholic teaching on the sanctity of human life and the sanctity of the transmission of human life, as well as how they are to inform us in our apostolates and ministries.
On much lighter notes, he fancies himself to be the foremost authority on his native Brooklyn, when it comes to architecture, cinema, geography, history, Italian food, stick ball, stoop ball, or wiffle ball.
