- Hollywood Jesus visual review.
- Themes
- Call
- Jesus experiences the call of God as a big headache until he accepts the call and feels free.
- Temptation
- Jesus' fictitious temptation to come down off the cross and life a "normal life" with Mary Magdalene.
- Resurrection
- An interesting "Raising of Lazarus" scene. Jesus goes to the tomb of Lazarus, obviously afraid. He reaches into the tomb for Lazarus, struggling (perhaps with his own death) and almost being pulled in before he pulls Lazarus out.
