Rosh Hashanah in the Movies



Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year holiday, began last night and continues until sundown on Wednesday. YouTuber David if yiddishkeit takes the opportunity to look at some feature films that include Rosh Hashanah: Liberty Heights, School Ties, The Believer, and Overture to Glory. I haven't seen any of them, but the first three may go on my very long to-do list. Shanah Tovah!

What next, number of times Muslim prayer mats were featured in movies where buildings were crashed into ?

I have no affiliation to any of the 18,000 gods and definitely not with any of the 5 major gods a number of humans believe in.

My comment is not a judgement on the Jewish or Muslim faiths, it is purely offered as my attempt at humour as I drink my first cappuccino of the day.
I use a Breville espresso machine, my 4th in 22 years.
Recently I have been using 'InCafe' brand beans, alternating between Forza, Java, and Malin, beans.
I heat the milk to 75ÂșC (C as in Miss C) and pour it SLOWLY down the inside of the cup into the coffee and crema.
A quick sprinkle of powdered chocolate and Viola (or whatever that is in Italian) I am a happy boy.
