The Last Temptation of Christ Martin Scorsese 1988 Originally Written 8/9/06An interesting picture, directed with trademark Scorsese flair, but still noticeably different than his work in the early nineties. A bit overlong, yes, and a bit difficult to follow for someone not too familiar with the story of Christ, but still thought provoking, still amazing to watch. It's strongest points lie in Scorsese's journey into Christ's thoughts, nightmares, visions, and fantasies. And wow, what a performance by Willem Dafoe, which went sadly un-nominated at the 88 Oscars.
