I saw Sex and the City the movie and I loved it!

I realize that there is a lot of to do among Christian circles regarding the latest HBO film, Sex and the City.  I am a huge fan of the TBS broadcast of the original HBO series, because of it's handy editing, removing what could be construed at soft porn.  I was drawn to the premise of this show and this movie because I believe that the relationships between the 4 main characters are ones I'd like to emulate.  They are very real, very vulnerable, very challenging, very present.  I want to surround myself with friends like Samantha, Carrie, Charlotte, and Miranda.  Furthermore, I want to be a friend like any of these 4 women.  They are strong, but not afraid to show emotion.  They are free to have differing opinions.  They are willing to enter into the crap and shame of their friends' hearts, unwaveringly.  They know when to push and when back off, and when to push again.  They let each other make bad choices, and then they don't judge them when they fall on their face.  They get mad when they're mad, they're not passive-aggressive conflict avoiders.  They fight and they forgive.  Once they reconcile, it's over, that's it.  They show up when one needs the other, even if it means great sacrifice.  Simply, they love each other really, really well.

The movie, sure there's sex in it, graphic sex.  I expected there to be.  It's called Sex and the City.  I'm a Christian, I paid money to see it, and I'd like to see it again.  It's a film of love, friendship, honesty, forgiveness, healing, and hope.  Sounds a little Christian to me.
