Jesus (1999 film)

Jesus is a 1999 Biblical television film that retells the story of Jesus. It was shot in Morocco and Malta. It stars Jeremy Sisto as Jesus, Jacqueline Bisset as Mary of Nazareth, Debra Messing as Mary Magdalene and Gary Oldman as Pontius Pilate.

Overview

The film's chronology entails a cinematic blending of the Four Gospels with the addition of extra-biblical elements not found in the New Testament Accounts. It provides a down to earth approach through its focus on the human aspect of Jesus. Compared to more solemn and divine portrayals in earlier films, Jesus expresses emotions weeping at Joseph’s funeral, throwing stones in Lake Galilee upon meeting Simon Peter and James son of Zebedee, dancing at the wedding at Cana, and starting a water-splashing fight with his disciples.

While the film mainly presented familiar Christian Episodes, it provides extra-biblical scenes such as flashbacks of his first trip to Jerusalem with John as well as scenes of war and destruction waged in the name of Jesus during the medieval and modern times. Likewise, the film's Satan comes in two different forms: a visual exemplification of a modern man and a woman in red, instead of the traditional snake that can be found in most films. The film also adds a composite character, an apocryphal Roman historian named “Livio” who watches and comments as events unfold; he is presumably named after Livy.

    Queen (Queen album)

    Queen is the eponymous debut studio album by British rock band Queen, released in July 1973. It was recorded at Trident Studios and De Lane Lea Music Centre, London, with production by Roy Thomas Baker (as Roy Baker), John Anthony and Queen.

    The album was influenced by the hard rock, progressive rock and heavy metal of the day. It covers subjects such as folklore ("My Fairy King") and religion ("Jesus"). Lead singer Freddie Mercury composed five of the ten tracks, guitarist Brian May composed four songs, (including "Doing All Right", which was co-written by Smile band-mate Tim Staffell), and drummer Roger Taylor composed and sang "Modern Times Rock and Roll". The final song on the album is a short instrumental version of "Seven Seas of Rhye". The band included on the album sleeve the comment "And nobody played synthesiser", a purist principle of May's, as some listeners had mistaken their elaborate multi-tracking and effects processed by guitar and vocal sounds as synthesisers. Bassist John Deacon was credited on the sleeve notes of the original vinyl release as "Deacon John", but after its release, he asked to be referred to by his real name.

    Amos Lee

    by: Amos Lee

    All my friends,
    all live in pain.
    Longing for the warmth of chilhood,
    to bring them home again.
    All my friends,
    got broken hearts.
    And if the world's at stage,
    we're searching for our parts.
    We'll face the winds,
    and break the strongest of trees.
    And beckon for the sweet, soft, summer breeze.
    All my friends,
    got broken wings.
    never will you hear them asking why,
    the cage bird sings.
    All my friends,
    they know how to live.
    oh so much sorrow,
    so much love to give.
    We'll face the winds,
    and break the strongest of trees. Beckon for the sweet, soft, summer breeze.
    We all know that storm is coming.
    Everybody want to know which way to go.
    i see the crowds running,
    the winds gonna blow.
    All my friends,
    are dear to me.
    Oh when the storm comes,
    they're as close as family.
    All the friends,
    are the ones i chose.
    If i hear them knocking,
    you know i can't refuse.
    We'll face the winds,
    and break the strongest of trees.
    And beckon for the sweet, soft, summer breeze.
    All my friends.
