The latest issue of Dappled Things is now available, full to brimming with short stories, poetry, reviews, art and photography, and more. Deserving particular note is Janice Walker’s review of the Fellowship for the Performing Arts production of The Screwtape Letters (accompanied by her interview with actor Max McLean):
The snake may have all the lines, but this was never put to such glorious effect as in the Fellowship for the Performing Arts’ production of C.S. Lewis’ The Screwtape Letters. In this more than timely production now on national tour, actor Max McLean as demonic Under Secretary Screwtape has brought a new dramatic energy to the devilish epistolary and holds up a mirror to our own noisy, confounded, joyless age.
Those of you who are familiar with the C.S. Lewis novel upon which the play is based (and those among you who are not… well, you’re pagans) will be cheered to learn that all of its biting wit and penetrating insight into the nature of temptation and redemption have translated remarkably well into the theatrical format. For the purposes of this review, I shall strive very hard not to reveal too much of the story, but since a good deal of my analysis rests on those dramatic turning points in the play that act as fulcrums to new emotional and theological experiences, I hereby issue an all-points spoiler alert! Abandon hope all ye who read further!
(Brave souls are encouraged to read further here.)
I wonder if people aware that Dappled Things is the *only* Catholic literary publication in the U.S.–perhaps in the world. There are many reviews, academic/cultural/political/whatever Catholic publications, but only one Catholic literary publication.
The movie camera is a type of photographic camera which takes a rapid sequence of photographs on strips of film. In contrast to a still camera, which captures a single snapshot at a time, the movie camera takes a series of images, each called a “frame”. This is accomplished through an intermittent mechanism.

A slower speed film will exhibit less “grain”, and a slower speed setting on an electronic sensor will exhibit less “noise”, while higher film and sensor speeds allow for a faster shutter speed, which reduces motion blur or allows the use of a smaller aperture to increase the depth of field. For example, a wider aperture is used for lower light and a lower aperture for more light.
