It is a dialogue . Not the touching film, not the example of accuracy, not the lesson about The Savior. Just a honest dialogue about sensitive aspects of His last days and about the people motivations and gestures and expectations around Christ. Surprising fresness and the inspired slow rhytm are the basic virtues of a film proposing the reflection and not the show. Chris Sarandon propose a portrait who you feel as deep authentic. The dialogues are inspired crafted. And, not the last, its deep honesty is the great virtue , proposing not a vision but a provocative frame for old questions and sketches for significant posible answers. So, a beautiful, in special sense, film.
