I am thinking of going Friday afternoon. I'm a bit leary of taking myself to see it because I haven't even handled audio presentations I've heard of the suffering of Christ very well. Despite my liking violent movies for entertainment, when it comes to thinking of my Saviour suffering this way - it seems I just almost can't handle it.

I am thinking of going. But, I can't say actually looking forward to it. I think the thing I would most like to have is someone supportive to sit with after it is over. Not to have for company *there* but I don't know that I want to come home alone and deal with it completely afterward.

Okay, now I'm psycho-rambling. But, I've pretty much decided the first showing Friday afternoon is when I will see it. I don't know what kind of shape I'll be in when I get home though.

You know you can call ... we'll be here.

Roger that.

At the very least I want to see it to know what everybody is talking about. On the other hand, if the film gets it as right as I think it might... it could be alot to handle without bawling incessantly afterward.

I figure it is somewhere in the middle of that. But I'll go find out.

It is, after all, just a movie. No movie regardless of how graphic could do justice to the true Passion. That's the one thing that really ticks me off about the reviews I've seen.

All we're asked of this is to sit down and watch for a couple of hours. There were thousands of people that watched in happen in real time. No movie, that, and it wasn't just a couple of hours.

I'll forward my review afterwards...
