'The Passion': They Know Not What They Watch
By TIMOTHY K. BEAL

I'd love to comment a little on this but my time is massively limited at the moment. But it's worth reading for some interesting comments on how the film parallels John's Gospel in setting up an insider / outsider contrast.

Update (24 March): thanks to Whit Stodghill (comments below) and Andrew Mills for pointing out that this has now gone premium too. Can't even find it in the Google cache.
