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...

Well... You can forward your reviews. I don't know if I'll be able to verbalize reviews at first. Just thinking about it puts a knot in my stomach. I am glad I know the truth. But, it is still hard to think of even without seeing it for 2 hours.

I guess I'm kinda a weakling when it comes to stuff like that. I can't for the life of me understand the realities of life back then when people really did watch stuff like that for entertainment. It makes me shudder talking of it. I am not made of strong enough stuff for that.

So, it is with a lot of difficulty that I plan to go see this. But, I'm going. I am not sure if I can handle the thing. But, I'm gonna try.
