Episode #128 -- The Last Temptation of Christ

As we get closer to Easter, the guys look back at one of the great films by Martin Scorsese and his most controversial. The Last Temptation of Christ tells the story of the last days of Jesus as he embraces his destiny to die on the cross while dealing with the mortal fears and doubts. The guys talk about the powerful titular temptation, Willem Dafoe's humanistic portrayal of a god and how Scorsese's background inspires the types of stories he wants to tell.
