RMS Movie Selection Discussion – The Ninth Configuration

Through the RMS Movie Selection series, each month a movie (from the list of movies Rama – Dr. Frederick Lenz suggested that his students watch) will be announced.  We will meet every 3rd Saturday of each month 11 AM PST, 2 PM EST to discuss the selected movie.

The movie selection to watch and discuss in November 2021 will be The Ninth Configuration.  A Marine psychiatrist at a military mental asylum in a remote castle sets out to try to cure the many Vietnam War soldiers.  He and an astronaut patient grapple with the meaning of life with or without God, love, and selfless giving in the face of life’s violence and atrocities of war.
