If one day a movie were produced
about your life, what moment/story would it capture? If it were limited to
around two hours, what events/relationships would it focus on? Would it be a
comedy? A tragedy? A drama? Perhaps some of all three rolled together? How
would it end? And would people still be interested in your biopic 2000 years from now? My guess would be—and
this is certainly true of me—that our largely forgettable life stories would be
largely forgotten less than 2000 days after their release dates.
Not so with the life of Jesus. He has
been portrayed in hundreds of films since movies were invented. The producers
of the immensely popular “The Bible” mini-series on the History Channel, released a full length feature film this
February about the life of Jesus called “Son of God”.
There are many memorable moments that are beautifully portrayed in
this retelling of the Gospel story. One
of my favorite scenes is when Jesus played by Diogo Morgado enters the tomb
that holds the body of Lazarus. We know the story from John 11 when Jesus raises
him from the dead. In one of the film's more interesting moments, Jesus,
standing over Lazarus, reaches down to kiss the forehead of His dead friend,
and as He does, Lazarus' eyes open. The scene, underscored by a Hans Zimmer
soundtrack is simply thrilling.
