demagogo
It is always ambitious to encompass the whole life of such a character like Jesus Christ. Context taken into account, this one is really well done, problem is, however, that, what makes it worth the merit, makes it also banal. I guess that the unreasonable explotation of the Bible as film subject makes this way less stunning as it probably was, as it would have happened when a Christian, already grown audience had watched a wounded Christ hanging on the cross for the very first time in their lives.
After all, I consider it is of good taste using Bible quotes, instead of anything, as intertitles. Worth a look. 8 years 10 months ago -
