The Nativity, coming out this December, is yet another Christmas movie that should excite the masses into flooding the local movieplexes.
Here are a couple of juicy tidbits about The Nativity:
1) Director Catherine Hardwicke produced Thirteen, a movie about two teenage girls from California taking acid, exploring homo & hetero sexuality, cutting, and pissing off their equally unstable single moms. Her other film is The Lords of Dogtown a movie about teenagers skateboarding. So… I guess a director that makes films about teenage fads is the perfect candidate to make a film about the birth of Jesus?
2) The movie was shot in Matera, Italy the same location used in The Passion of the Christ….grrreat. I can just see the town’s new marketing tagligne, “Matera, backdrop for the bible.”
3) 16 year old Keisha Castle-Hughe who plays Mary recently gave birth...out of wedlock, missing the film's screening with the Pope.
A deluge of other horrific Christmas-themed movies are also available in theaters near you, joy to the world indeed! To add to the offending list I’ll give a shot out (of disapproval) to Deck the Halls, (starring Danny deVINO, dubbed so after his appearance on The View), and Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause. These films are nothing more than sordid attempts by industry conglomerates to make a buck off of Jesus.
