However,
the deeper purpose of this section will be to look at the bearing of Christian faith both as truth and as power, regardless of denominational or ecclesiastical affiliations, on man's perennial problems of frustration and fear, unmerited suffering, sin and death.
The pacing is good, but the film also comes with many obvious markers
of rough editing and recuts, which makes the middle
section feel muddled and disjointed; it's hard to see certain scenes as sequential and
purposed, rather than stitched together from parts
of what was seemingly a
deeper (and longer) character study.
