The Last Temptation Of Christ DVD

This powerful drama earned director Martin Scorsese an Academy Award Nomination for 'Best Achievement in Directing' 1989, as well as Golden Globe Nominations for Barbara Hershey (Best Supporting Actress) 1989 and Peter Gabriel (Best Score) 1989. Based on the novel by Nikos Kazantzakis and starring Willem Dafoe, The Last Temptation of Christ is a visually breathtaking accomplishment. The dual substance of Christ - the yearning, so human, so superhuman, of man to attain God - has always been a deep inscrutable mystery to me. My principal anguish and the source of all my joys and sorrows from my youth onward has been the incessant, merciless battle between the spirit and the flesh... and my soul is the arena where these two armies have clashed and met Nikos Kazantzakis.
