I wouldn’t mind seeing him suffer if I also saw his ministry time with his disciples after he had risen from the dead, when he ate with them, or when they walked with him on the road to Emmaus. The short scene of him getting up from the tomb was just not satisfactory enough to me. The whole rising from the dead was a big fulfilling purpose of all that he had to go through, not the other way around. If anything, that’s why I enjoyed another Jesus film, which I am trying to recall, in which there was some blood shown, but it did have him risen and talking to his disciples afterwards, it also showed Satan as a mobster, and showed him having visions of WWII. Now, if someone could just gladly help me figure exactly what that film was I would so gladly get a hold of a copy for keeps...

Isn't that frustrating!! Sorry I can't help you. But I think a thread about "lines I remember from movies I forget" would be at least as worthwhile as this critique of old Best Picture awards.

Your example sounds interesting. My example, from the world of political theory, would be the movie I saw that was set in an Islamic country in the Middle Ages. In it, two counselors to the ruler see two young princes having at each other - and one of the counselors remarks, "They fight as only half-brothers can."

Which is what I think of whenever I discus The Road to Serfdom and its comparison of Stalin's "Communism" with Hitler's "National Socialism." FA Hayek makes clear in the book that they were fighting as much because of their similarity as because of their difference.

No luck trying to Google it . . . sigh.
