I recently watched the movie Bedazzeled with Brendan Frazier. The movie interested me with its theme of good verses evil and Elliot's struggle to get what he sees as the perfect life. One scene towards the end where Elliot is thrown in jail after arguing with the devil over how many wishes he had already received interested me with the appearance of one of Gods' angels while he is in jail, to encourage and give Elliot some words of wisdom. Scene starts with Elliot's black cell mate saying "They say she's a devil that lady cop." He goes on to explain that Elliot's soul really belongs to God and he can't really give it away. The scene ends with Elliot looking out the window of the jail thinking over what has been said to him. The theme of the scene could be that we were created by God, are chosen by God and we belong to God. (Neal Shaw)
