Re: Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ".....       02/26/04 07:21 PM Edit Reply Quote tuxedocat Reged: 02/09/04 Posts: 279 Loc: Ithaca, NY Yeah, I'm really interested in seeing this film. I study trauma, violence, the Holocaust and other "happy" topics, so I'm really interested in how graphic this movie is. Not that I am in favor of filmic recreations of such violence, but this is a big question: How much violence is too much for an audience? What is the right balance to convey a particular message? Is there a saturation/ desensitization point? Things like that. So I'm interested to hear your reactions to the movie! Hopefully I'll see it this weekend. As for the gender issue--that's kind of appropriate that an androgyneous woman plays Satan--sort of avoids the whole question! But apparently this movie does this in a lot of ways (like portraying Pontius Pilate as the opposite of his historically accurate cruel self). -------------------- --Julie Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
