To act or not to act

I have thought many times of making a list of the best priests in Stockholm on this blog but Gunnar won't let me do that.

We are at Stefan's Church, and the priest's speech is a repetition of the Evangel/Gospel he has just read.
He whispers, screams, performs a scene between Jesus and Simon... What is he doing excatly?
A priest is a mediator between the Word and the audience in the church.
He is not God, not the son of God, not an actor, not a reader, he is a priest!
I am mad at him and I won't mention his name here.

Then, to cheer us up, we watch Les diaboliques by Henri-Georges Clouzot.
I still like this thriller a lot. Gunnar thinks it is too predictable.
But I have to confess that I had told him about the plot and the climax...
This is the only film we watch this day.

We wander to the Culture House where a small exhibition dedicated to the light artist Lesley Leslie-Spinks is shown.


We finish the day at Hedvig Eleonora Church where Ulf (?) performs an organ symphony by Anders S. Börjesson.
Gunnar is very enthusiastic.
He wants to use the final at our wedding (and make all my guests flee?!!).
