Title: Modern pictures of Jesus.. Post by: Sofie on November 09, 2004, 11:06:57 AM Hello everyone,
I am studying theology at the university and have a bit of a funny question. I am doing some work where I have to find pictures, music lyrics or films where one might se a connection to Jesus. The main character does not have to be named Jesus (from Nasareth) but can be any popular image/song/film where threre is a hidden link (or resembelance) to the life or work of jesus.. It could also be any tips of modern art depicting Jesus. Do you guys have any ideas? Help please :) Kind regards Sofie ps: please excuse my spelling as English is not my first language.

Movies: Schindler's List The Diary of Anne Frank Song: In the shadow of the steeple ('84)...can't remember the artist. Title: Re:Modern pictures of Jesus.. Post by: Bronzesnake on November 10, 2004, 02:29:20 AM There's a great song by Genesis called Salisbury Hill
As for movies with hidden connection to the life of Jesus... The Matrix movies. Hope this helps. Bronzesnake Title: Re:Modern pictures of Jesus.. Post by: Sofie on November 14, 2004, 09:39:20 AM Hi,
Thanks for your ideas. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner but I have been away from home and didn't have access to a computer. Schindlers list and Anne Frank are brilliant! That I didn't think of that! daaahh.. ??? :P Someone had already written about the Matrix in my course - and it was a really good essay. I haven't even seen the films I don't know why, I guess I have thought they where a bit scary. I am such a chicken when It comes to watching scary movies. I actually have done an interpretation of U2:s song Pride (in the name of love) But haven't got a reply from my teacher yet. Thanks again for your effort in helping me. Sof |
