One of my favourit.
I re-saw it lately, and one thing did not pleased me.
The setting and the actor look TOO Italian, in a dated way like his " tales ". ( Decameron and so on )
Still touch with grace.
Highly recommended by the Vatican....

  or Protestant?
  Why but why always pointing out " The Jews ".
  Why?
  Tell me...
  Now the whole setting still look TOO Italian*.
  Still.
  * Of course it does not remove the power of this film, but just annoying...At least for me.

    You said he looked too Italian. I pointed out he's Jewish. I doubt you could pick the Italians from the Jews in a line-up.
    Must you see prejudice everywhere you look? You're like a more sophisticated version of Jazz Inmate.
    Have a glass of riesling, take a few deep breaths, and look out at the beautiful German countryside. Life is good. Relax. No one's out to get you.

        "ActorS" may have been MEANT but what you wrote, what we saw, and what he was respondfing to, was "Actor". I would have responded the same way.
        
        You would have responded that the actor was Jewish? - sjb 14:07:41 01/12/07 (5)

        No. I would have responded to the word "actor" if I were responding, which I didn't choose to.
        
        Why "weird?" Patrick implied Jesus didn't look Jewish by saying he - tinear 16:54:09 01/12/07 (3)

        didn't look correct for the part.
        Since Jesus was Jewish, I responded that the actor similarly is Jewish so...
        This ain't rocket science so I presume you and Patrick have some hidden agenda here..

        I never meant that " Jesus " was not correct for the part!
        In fact this actor made a very good job under the fathering of Pasolini.
        Again, what I meant WAS that the scenery and most comparse LOOKED too Italian for my taste.

        of either making scintillating unimpeachable points or not reading very carefully before responding.
