***AND AT HOLY NAME OF MARY: Thanks to your participation in the purchase of SR Gift Cards, Holy Name earned $5,551 during the calendar year Jan-Dec 2025! Let’s try to top that number this year by selling even more cards to more parishioners. Shoprite gift cards are available for purchase after Mass or at the Parish Office during normal office hours. When you purchase a card in $20, $50, or $100 denominations from us, Holy Name receives 5% of the total amount you purchase because we purchase them in bulk at a 5% discount. Use them as gifts or for your own food shopping! That 5% raised goes toward helping the needy of our parish at no cost to you.

FROM THE MAILBOX

A reader recently watched the latest iteration of LITTLE WOMEN starring, among others, Timothee Chalamet, Florence Pugh, etal. She believes that there was a magazine dedicated to the film but remembers little else. Can we help?

Response: Indeed we can--having featured all this at the blog back in 2020. At that time. Life Magazine produced a special retrospective on the remake. (Click on the photo.)

The retrospective was on sale at our local ShopRite and has since become a bit of a collector's item.  You can 
sometimes find it on EBAY.  This was the 7th version of the 1868 novel by Louisa May Alcott. The film starred Saoirse Ronan, Emma Watson, Florence Pugh, Eliza Scanlen, Laura Dern, Timothée Chalamet, Tracy Letts, Bob Odenkirk, James Norton, Louis Garrel, Chris Cooper, and Meryl Streep. It received critical acclaim and at that time, grossed $191.3 million worldwide. Among its numerous accolades, the film received six nominations at the 92nd Academy Awards.
