Nobody forces you to go to an “Anglican Use” Parish and hear the words of the “Heretic” Thomas Cranmer. I guess you approve of his Martyrdom by being burned at the stake by Catholics so I suppose you could reflect on that while you listen to the “Heretic’s” words.

You bare right, of course. I rarely attend the N.O. but have never seen it sans abuse, sometimes so bad that I truly wonder if the intent of the presiding cleric really was what the Church would have as Her intent. That said I have no doubt that the ‘new’ Mass can be said correctly, reverently and with the attendant Graces of the Sacrifice of Our Lord. How sad then that He is so abused so often. Uniting with Him in that humiliation is, at least to me, a surreal revisitation to the scourging, the mocking and the taunting of His Passion.

What the author describes may not be the Ordinary Form of the Mass, but it most certainly is the ordinary form of the Mass.

One scene which struck me when re-watching it some years ago was when the nuns walked to Sunday Mass under the desert sun, along the road, in full habits. (And, the communion fast was three hours back then, though water was permitted.)If I recall correctly, they had a German mother superior.

I was around, yes, but hadn't yet made my first Holy Communion when Pius XII limited the midnight fast in 1953 by
Christus Dominus and again, this time to the laity in general, in 1957 by
Sacram Communionem. The midnight fast is a vague memory, the three hour fast more familiar.

East German. In the movie, the nuns had to get past the Wall to escape to the West. The novel was set in 1947.

Do read the entire piece. I read it. I never intend to "revisit" the novus ordo. The last time I did was to attend a wedding, and since it was a wedding I didn't have to explain my tears.

Except that the abuses are universally found in the ordinary rite and none are found in the extraordinary rite.
Not at my Parish. Not at my school. Which invalidates your argument.

Glad to hear things remain straight up at HR. You folks are one of the very few in the northwest.
How is HR handling the AB’s new “Communion in the hand because of swine-flu” edict?

People smugly declare that America isn't a "Christian" nation and that the Catholic Church has no meaningful role in American culture and yet the decline of said culture to the edge of the abyss is remarkably coincident with V2 and its emasculations.

I think it was back in '59.
