    EPISODE 97 - A Face In The Crowd

    I voted yes because A Face in the Crowd is timelessly relevant and a great film that became one of my favorites after my first viewing. When it was announced AFITC would be the subject of this week's episode, I naturally recognized the parallels to the Trump campaign which only became stronger with the release of the Access Hollwood video. I couldn't have guessed how the film and Devin and Amy's discussions would reflect another situation that came to light this week.

    Episode 69 - The Christs

    For what it's worth, as an atheist watching The Last Temptation of Christ, it was the first time Jesus felt like a real presence, a man or a demigod or however he would be classified. The idea of his sacrifice meant nothing to me, and I still don't consider it relevant to my life, but Martin Scorsese adapting Kazantzakis's novel brought emotional weight to Christ and true gravity to his mission in a way that this godless heathen could understand. I got none of that from The Passion of the Christ. Jesus seems like a nice enough guy. I hate to see him shredded to bloody pieces, but Mel Gibson doesn't imbue his suffering with any real meaning, except it's a shame the genius who invented chairs had to go through all that.
