Holy Week Traditions in the Philippines: Imitating Christīased on the Nikos Kazanstzakis novel of the same name, the film examines the life of Jesus (Willem Dafoe) as if he were human, a carpenter who made crosses for the Romans and who spends a considerable amount of time trying to displease God, who speaks to him via a pain so deep he ends up convulsing on the ground. But the real clamor is over the sequences that suppose that Jesus didn’t die on the cross, that he actually lived a normal life and had a family-no wait, two families-and died of old age. There is something jarring about watching Jesus biblically lie with a woman, even if said woman is as hot as Mary Magdalene (Barbara Hershey). Equally disturbing is watching a narrative where Judas (Harvey Keitel) is the voice of reason. But move past the blasphemy and you get a film that presents characters who aren’t one-dimensional depictions of biblical personalities. Dafoe’s angst as Christ is clear, and Keitel’s Judas has a heart, albeit one that seems to have come to Judea by way of New York. The Last Temptation of Christ examines the life of Jesus in a narrative light, purposely jumbling occurrences in the gospel and cleverly pointing out the ‘could haves.’ Watch it if you’re in the mood to give your parish priest a coronary. And since the film is still banned in the Philippines, you’ll be giving the government one as well.Cineworld has cancelled all showings of a controversial film about the life of the Prophet Muhammad's daughter following protests outside cinemas. The cinema chain confirmed it will no longer be taking bookings for The Lady of Heaven after several demonstrations across the country, including one in Bolton.ĭozens of people are reported to have descended on Cineworld at The Valley on Sunday (June 4) to protest against the screening of the film and its depiction of the life of Lady Fatima, the daughter of Prophet Muhammad. 
The movie, which puts the "face" of the Prophet Muhammad on screen, has been branded "highly offensive and blasphemous" by some Muslim activists. In a letter to Cineworld, Bolton Council of Mosques (BCoM) called for the chain to pull the 'blasphemous' film from its cinemas.

It grossly disrespects the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in many ways and is deeply disturbing to every Muslim.
The storyline begs the question to what extent the producers had considered the huge impact of this film upon the Muslim community and notions of sacredness dearly held by them.” “It also misrepresents orthodox historical narratives and disrespects the most esteemed individuals of Islamic history.
It adds: “In Bolton, we are a very diverse community and are very respectful of each other’s culture and honour on community cohesion."

The movie opens with the invasion of Iraq by ISIS and features a graphic jihadist murder. It then goes on to document the life of Fatima, daughter of the founder of Islam, during the seventh century. Protesters outside Cineworld in Birmingham (Image: / SWNS) Islamic tradition forbids the direct portrayal of religious figures and the film’s director Eli King depicts Fatima as a faceless character, shrouded by a black veil.
But protestors have accused film makers of inaccurately depicting religious history and negatively portraying three of Islam's most important figures.Īnd other critics claim negative characters were portrayed by black actors, which they say 'stems from the racial bias against darker skinned people’. As well as Bolton, demonstrators also turned out to picket theatres in Bradford, Birmingham and Sheffield showing the film over the weekend.Ī petition calling for The Lady of Heaven to be removed from UK cinemas has so far gained more than 120,000 signatures.
