Passion is beautiful, from a strictly artistic point of view.

James Caviezel should have gotten awards for physical stamina; he was struck by lightning, came down with pneumonia (I think) and dislocated his shoulder (if I remember correctly). He also was struck once by the cat-o-nine-tails when they missed the board strapped to his back during the whipping scene. Brutal.

Other than that...you're not missing much having skipped it. Of course I went to see it with two severely conservative religious people, and I am a bit more liberally minded than either of the people I went with...neither of whom is still in my circle of acquaintances. Fairly certain that for one of them my reaction to the movie was part of why. I don't miss him.

So Passion is basically Titanic for the religious? Not much of a solid central core, but it's incredibly visceral and had some great production stories?

Fair enough, I guess. I still gotta give the nod to Titanic because you don't have to merely BELIEVE a ship really sank.

I wouldn't have thought of it that way, but I could see that point of view. I suppose it depends on what someone believes...or is interested in.
