...lecturing on gay rights, or Khalid Mohammed delivering a Hillel-funded lecture on the virtues of Judaism. Inconceivable, right? You might be surprised, however, to know that a lecture will be delivered at Memorial Church next week that will likely be just as bad as the above hypotheticals. I refer to the William Belden Noble Lecture, which this year is being given by retired Episcopal bishop John Shelby Spong...
...Graham. (He later reviled even Jerry Falwell.) His fundamentalist separatism suspended B.J.U. in amber on topics from anti-Catholicism to its ban on interracial dating (which led to the revocation of its tax-exempt status). Today B.J.U.'s positions are truly marginal.

The movie itself is shot entirely from Stewart's vantage-point at his rear window and is a fascinating exploration of voyeurism, inference and 1950s haute couture...
