    Looking at film interpretations of the stories in the Bible - past, present and future, as well as preparation for a future work on Straub/Huillet's Moses und Aron and a few bits and pieces on biblical studies.

    Color of the Cross review up at rejesus

    My review of Color of the Cross has been published at rejesus.

    Anyone who is interested in the film might also wish to read the longer review of it written for this site as well as my scene analysis.

    There are also a few other bits and pieces that have surfaced about this film recently. Over at Sisterlocks® there's a very positive review by BlaqKofi. That in turn led me to the blog of co-writer Jim Troesh who has a number of posts on the film, including episode 4 of his short documentaries series, The Hollywood Quad. Troesh mentions a few interesting things to do with the writing of the film, and does it in a very tongue in cheek style. That works better in some places than others, but the final line is brilliant.

      If there are all 3 films of this production, (Including part 3 that has not yet been released) i wonder how long it is going to be to watch all 3 films of this movie.
      Because it looks like a mini-series film to me.

      It makes me wonder if they will ever release it in chronological order as well like they apparently did with the Godfather trilogy once.

      Yeah. I have no idea when it will be out. Because I suggest it will be out in 2010 or 2011. Because I checked the list of films Juan Claude LaMarre produced and part 3 of this film was not on there. I suggest 2011, Maybe.
