The August MOTM is…

There was a short voting window, but we did get a pretty good turnout. Once again, the outcome was close, with the top two vote getters being separated by a miniscule number of ballots cast.

Dave will get to host the upcoming discussion of the film on the LAMBcast episode next week.

 

Our thanks to Jeanette Ward, James Wilson and Howard Casner for submitting films…
