Man Making

I've mentioned before that manhood rites-of-passage concepts are not the exclusive domain of Christian fathers. Here's a manhood blog & website that appears not to be Christian in nature, but often has interesting insights and links to other info.

Of particular interest to me is the page that lists "guy films"...films the author has found contain themes that tie in well with manhood discussions.

These films can be great discussion starters for groups of men, and for a group of men and adolescent males. The debrief can always add some depth to a film for young guys, and you’ll be surprised where a discussion can lead a group. While the film will suggest the best questions, sample debrief questions might include:
  • What scenes in the move were the most memorable for you? How did those scenes make you feel? Why?
  • What was the most exciting part of the film?
  • Who was your favorite character and why?
  • What did the film teach you about being a man? Do you think men are like that in real life?
