Critically acclaimed movie with Jesus as the leader of a cast doing a radical humanist rehash of The Passion Play.

What really makes the film, though, is its ability to surprise, especially in the way that a wide variety of polemic issues are introduced into a classy, clever, thoroughly entertaining format.

Meticulously detailed but well-paced, it's a rich, riveting movie with a powerfully haunting soundtrack from Philip Glass.

Less accesible Bunuel, but still interesting and witty. We follow two vagrants on their pilgrimage to Spain. Along the way they meet various biblical characters, slip through a time-warp amongst other bizarre digressions. Sometimes the symbolism is a little obvious, but the humour saves it.
