I'm back from the movie. You were right. It is something.

Awesome.

Awesome, yes. Conveys great awe. And awful - awe-full, rather. Also wonderful - fills me with wonder. Words sometimes don't have the right means. Sometimes a picture can help.

I was impressed, but also, as I said, felt like I couldn't take it in. I was emotionally numb rather early on. I want to watch it again when I'm a bit more prepared.

It's obvious that a lot of reverence and thought went into the making of the film. And though so many people spoke out against using Aramaic and Latin, I felt like that made a difference in bringing you into the story - didn't have American or British accents to get in the way, if you know what I mean.

Hard to watch, though. Edifying, but not enjoyable.
