  Bart Ehrman's Favorite Bible Film--made in Canada

  by humbled in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i heard an interview with him once when he was asked did he have a favorite bible-themed film.

  he said yes-- jesus of montreal.. "when attendence at a church's annual passion play flags, a troupe of young actors is hired to stage a newer interpretation of the teachings of jesus.

  while their newer, more modern version brings the house down, it also brings down the condemnation of church hierarchy, creating a strange parallel between the actors--now persecuted believers--and the authorities.

  P R O U D of H E R: Daughter's column in the New York Times

  by humbled in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  she called last night to say it's online now, front page.

  it'll be in the print version sunday.. not everyone's cup of tea, at first consideration: she is slightly embarrassed to be featured in the modern love column in the style section.. the times people asked to make a short video of her article "fight or flight".

  they went to her bronx apartment to talk to her.
