Quote of the Day

"What is most depressing about 'The Passion' is the thought that people will take their children to see it. Jesus said, 'Suffer the little children to come unto me,' not 'Let the little children watch me suffer.' How will parents deal with the pain, terror, and anger that children will doubtless feel as they watch a man flayed and pierced until dead? The despair of the movie is hard to shrug off, and Gibson’s timing couldn't be more unfortunate: another dose of death-haunted religious fanaticism is the last thing we need."

--David Denby, in The New Yorker
