The two are really just two sides to the same emotional coin. Heads can't find flaw with the film because it is so dear to the hearts of the head camp. The tails camp can't anything to like about the film because if they don't actually hate Christ himself, they certainly hold christians in contempt.
The film is a movie best loved by those who love it. No need to muddy the waters with film-making awards and accolades. No need at all to ask anyone to be objective about the movie.
"Ray is both disabled and black. If I don't nominate it I am an insensitive racists. MDB is edgy and feminist. Moreover, Eastwood is conservative but made an edgy movie that has his own side made at him - Strange New Respect is mandatory to encourage others like him. Aviator gave money to everyone I know. Sure the subject is a capitalist, which damns him, but he was a movie director which is a big plus and crazy, which makes him a victim and insensitive to pick on him. Besides, I mean Alan Alda is in this movie. I can't vote against Joe Stalin can I? And it has pretend McCarthy hearings. Passion, on the other hand, is Christianity taking is self seriously, and everyone knows the Party's position on the subject so what is there to say?"
They are commie jerks and their awards are irrelevant as awards. But they are perfectly revealing as politics, which is all they are. They tell the rest of us what shallow unprincipled commies they all are.
