Synopsis

Martin Scorsese's powerful adaptation of the novel by Nikos Kazantzakis generated unwarranted controversy when first released. Those who protested the film (many without actually seeing it) for its depiction of Christ''s human temptations failed to notice the overt and sincere spirituality Scorsese brought to his work. A visually striking, intelligent and sensitive film, with an outstanding performance by Willem Dafoe as Jesus and a distinctive musical score by Peter Gabriel. With Barbara Hershey, Harvey Keitel, Harry Dean Martin Scorsese---USA---1988---164 mins.
