» In the next few weeks we will be trying out In-Text Advertising, a new type of advertising that we think is less intrusive than many other formats. Basically, keywords on our pages that correspond to an advertiser's product or service will be double-underlined in green. More details here.
Steve Martin is a fake faith healer preying on the praying
faithful by being part circus clown and part hi-tech sleuth. When he gets stuck in a
dried-up Kansas hamlet, he puts on a good show until a real miracle occurs.
SEX/NUDITY 2 - Comments insinuating sexual relationships ("she wants
me" and "you need a man") and wanting sex. One scene where a man is shown

had sex. One romantic kiss.
VIOLENCE/GORE 0 - None.

PROFANITY 4 - Lots of scatological references and some references to male
genitalia. Sexually explicit hand gestures. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Religion and faith vs. fake prophets, the possibility of
actual miracles, greed, pre-marital sex, redemption.
MESSAGE - God works in mysterious ways, and He, probably, does exist. Faith
shall be rewarded.
