ABC’s ‘Judas’ doesn’t judge history’s most notorious sellout Continued from page 8B ously is the way he has mod ernized the dialogue. It was done, no doubt, in the inter est of accessibility, but after a while, you half-expect Jesus to start calling his disciples “you guys.” Recruiting Judas for the cause, the film’s happy hippie version of Jesus says to him: “I want you to spend eternity with me, with my father. Whaddaya say?” When the disciples ask Jesus to tell them what fate has chosen for Him, Jesus tells them, ‘"You’re not ready to handle the details.” Some disciples lobby for violence, but Jesus says, “That is not the way we’re gonna win.” Ordering Jesus arrested, Pilate instructs soldiers to go to Gethsemane and “grab him.” True, nobody yells out “Yo, Jesus!” or says, “I know where you’re cornin’ from, man” (or sings “Hey, Jude”).

F^yer Hour: 7:30PM Fontana wanting to avoid all that “thee,” “thine” and “thou” stuff, but he went too far the other way. In addi tion, the actor playing Jesus, Jonathan Scarfe, looks like Conan O’Brien in a wig and beard, except that he’s on the chubby side and has a rather sappy smile. It’s more than coincidental that ABC is airing “Judas” while’s Cibson’s gloomy gore fest is still in theaters. TV Cuide reports that “Judas” was made in 2001 but was salted away by ABC execu tives who feared the film would offend fundamental ists. Any protest over “Judas” now, however, would be dwarfed by the din over Cibson’s movie anyway. Versatile Johnathan Schaech, in the title role, does about as much as can be done with a character more hated than John Wilkes Booth and Lee Har vey Oswald put together. Judas is a political animal in Fontana’s vision, a would-be rabble-rouser who advocates overthrow of the government by force or violence.

PRESBYTERIAN i^irrED METHDi:«ST cal “King of Kings,” which eschewed special-effects mir acles for a humanist approach. Ray had the thief Barabhas, not Judas, being the pohtical firebrand. Judas chafes at the peace- fid teachings of Jesus' but likes Him in a best-bud kind of way. In one of the film’s more embarrassing scenes, the two pals are horsing around and break into an impromptu wrestling match. The torture and physical punishment in which Gibson wallows mostly occurs off screen in “Judas.” Fontana and director Charles Robert Gamer prove that it is possi ble to convey the barbaric horror of cmcifixion without going into sociopathic excess. “Judas,” says a printed prologue, is “an interpretive dramatization” based on what is known about his hfe. There’s another on-screen notation at the film’s end: “In Memoriam: Father EUwood Kieser,” dedicating the movie to the weU-Uked TV priest who died in Septem ber 2000. Kieser saw the positive possibdities of tele vision and produced many worthwhile shows to take advantage of them. ^ God's Meeting Place Christian Fellowship Sunday Morning Worship...9:45am Temporary LocatiomStetk Creek Elementary School 4100 Gallant lane • Charlotte, NC For Information Call; 704^25-4017 Rev.
