Oh thank you.
Thank you thank you thank you.
My first laugh all day.
Is it weird that the first thing I think of when I saw this was not my love for Nick Ray (of which I have a great, great deal), or the humor of the image – but instead Neko Case and her wonderful “John Saw the Number” seen, or rather heard, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=peHVjXcdzc4
Has there even been a movie about the events of Easter where Jesus was actually played by a Jew? John the Baptist? Mary Magdalene? St Peter?
Judas was played by the Jewish-born Harvey Keitel in Scorsese’s Last Temptation of Christ, but that is as close as I can get on first thought.
Well, there’s always Debra Messing as Mary Magdalene – honest – in the not-bad-at-all 1999 TV Jesus. Jeremy Sisto was J.C., and he wasn’t bad at all either.
