What's fascinating about these two characters is not just how different they start off in the beginning of the movie, but how... They grow from not just the high school caricatures we assume to survive, but end up whole and complex people.

Begins as a satire, ends with a renewal of faith.

It's a shame the closing moral about a more pragmatic, inclusive approach to spirituality is conveyed with such a heavy hand.

These characters were brought to life by a wonderful ensemble cast who clearly connected with the humanity and the spirituality of their roles.
