I really liked this movie. The acting, writing, and story are very interesting and different than most films that are made today. This is
like the movies they made in the 50's, slower paced with a lot of dialogue. So by the end of the film you really feel like you know these people. Mary's mother and Joseph's bother add more layers of family life to this story. Sadly I think most people are unwilling to see
Jesus as anything other than the way they were both up in their religion to see him. Are they afraid to have NEW IDEAS about him ??
