‘Last Temptation of Christ
A visual, spiritual triumph
By Shane Hall
Staff Writer
As you can probably guess from
the furor around it, “The Last
Temptation of Christ” is anything
but another boring biblical film, ala
“The Greatest Story Ever Told.”
Martin Scorsese’s controversial,
low budget epic exploring the hu
manity of Christ is intelligent, emo
tional, and yes, spiritual.
Based on Greek author Nikos Ka-
zantzakis’ novel of the same name,
“The Last Temptation of Christ” is
not so much the story of Jesus Christ
as it is the story of the ongoing strug
gle between the physical and the
spiritual. The battlefield for this
struggle, Kazantzakis wrote, is the
arena of the soul.
The movie opens with a dis
claimer stating that the film is not
based on the Gospels, but is a fictio
nal account of this inner struggle.
Willem Dafoe, best known for his
role as the kindly Sgt. Elias in “Pla
toon,” plays Jesus and turns in an as
tonishing performance as one who is
both God and man. Dafoe’s Jesus is
one who is tormented by temptation
from all sides and struggles in an
guish to overcome it. An especially
powerful scene shows Christ on a
fast in the desert. He sits in a circle
drawn in the ground as the devil, as
suming the forms of a cobra, a lion
and a burst of flame, tempts him un
successfully.
After this important scene, Christ
returns to his disciples fully pre
pared to bring his message to the
people of Israel.
Scorsese dramatizes several of the
miracles from Christ’s life: the rais
ing of Lazarus, the wedding at Cana
and the giving of sight to a blind
man. Here Judas, ever the publicist,
leads the healed man around, pro
claiming to the crowd how Jesus
gave sight to a man born blind.
The scenes of Christ’s scourging
and crucifixion, while graphically vi
olent, are the most moving and emo
tional of any movie dealing with Je
sus. Scorsese strips away the
grandiose buildings and lavish cos
tumes to construct one of the most
compulsively watchable sequences in
film. His mastery of packing a ton of
tension into a short sequence gives
such scenes as the nailing of Cnrist
to the cross an intensity that holds
the viewer in a deathgrip.
While F esus hangs on thecrosy
bent, misnapen figure, the lasttem|>
tation alluded to in the titleoccursi
young angel appears before Jesus,
telling him that God is pleased and
does not wish him to die. In these
quence, Christ is shown visionsofli
ing as an ordinary man with a nil
and children. The much talked
about love scene between Christ and
Mary Magdalene takes place in thi
context. The scene is neither inde
cent nor lustful and it lasts about®
seconds.
The temptation sequence contin
ues as it shows Christ growing old
The film then makes a sudden re
turn to reality and Christ’s death on
the cross. The crucifixion is one
the most astonishing scenes of the
entire film, visually and emotionally
Filmed in Morocco on a S6.5mi
lion budget, “Last Temptation” is
film of visually impressive scenes
Scorsese’s Holy I-and is a barrende
sert, full of violence and treachen
Michael Ballhaus’ cinematography is
consistently fine throughout.
The film also boasts a harrowine
soundtrack by Peter Gabriel and
some great performances.
Dafoe, Keitel and Hershey all give
outstanding performances, but
there are some memorable cameos
as well, including Harry Dean Stan
ton as Saul/Paul and David Bowieas
Pontius Pilate.
With “The Last Temptation
Christ,” Martin Scorsese has crafted
a moving, challenging film that is
visual, and most of all, a spiritual tn
umph.
AIDS infected children face
uncertain future in schools
It’s been three years since Ryan
White’s highly publicized battle to go
to school in Indiana, and three years
since another child with AIDS qui
etly entered schools in Massacnu-
setts.
For children infected with the hu
man immunodeficiency virus, the
same uncertainty remains. Some
started classes with little or no fuss
this year, while a boy in Illinois who
has already fled one town faced
more protests in his new home.
“AIDS Kills,” said one sign carried
by protesters in Illinois. “Help Keep
AIDS Out of Our Schools,” said an
other.
“We don’t want to be in the spot
light. I don’t want to be a civil rights
activist,” says Tammie Robertson,
whose 8-year-old son Jason hopes to
enter school in South Roxana, Ill.
In Lakewood, Colo., and St. Al
bans, W.Va., 5-year-olds with AIDS
entered kindergarten classes with no
fuss.
However, there were some pro
tests in another Colorado senool
when parents learned that an 8-year-
old who had tested positive for the
AIDS antibody, an indicator of ex
posure, was attending classes.
Kay Pride, spokesman for Jeffer
son County schools, said state law re
quires school officials to keep the
child’s identity confidential. How
ever, she said it is school policy to no
tify parents whose children attend
the same school as a child who has
been exposed to the AIDS virus.
The Centers for Disease Control
issued guidelines three years ago
saying there was apparently no risk
within a classroom of contracting
AIDS, which is transmitted by sexual
contact, sharing infected hypoder
mic needles or receiving a transfu
sion of contaminated blood.
Of the more than 72,000 AIDS
cases confirmed since June 1981, the
CDC says not one was transmitted
within a school.
President Reagan’s commission
on AIDS, headed by Adm. JamesD
Watkins, affirmed earlier this year
that “there is no need to treat those
infected with HIV in a manner dif
ferent from those not infected ii
such settings as the workplace, hous
ing and the schools.”
“We’ve won all the cases. The case
law is pretty clear, that there is n
reason to exclude HIV children,
says William Rubenstein, staff coun
sel for the AIDS and Civil Liberties
Project of the American Civil Liber
ties Union.
Winning the case, however, isn’l
always enough. Ryan White won his
legal fight to attend school in Russia
ville, Ind., but gave up in thefaceof
protests. Jason Robertson won a
court order last school year to join
classes in Granite City, Ill., but his
family also decided to move.
John McCarthy, superintendent
of schools in Swansea, Mass., pre
sided over the peaceful admission of
an AIDS victim in 1985.
