At first I believed that the film Jesus was a Commie would bring about a lot of controversy and arguing when shown in my theology class. I found it absurd that someone would say this, let alone make a film accusing Jesus to be a communist. As I started to watch the film though, the film maker carefully and respectfully explained the true meaning behind what communism really is supposed to be about. The film depicted a view of pureness and no corruption through communism, two things that have been severely twisted in this political ideology because of historical events. The film was very calm and all theories were backed up with well-devised statements that helped to make the idea of Jesus having communistic motivations seem less overwhelming. I think that everyone should watch this film because it brings a sense of open- mindedness and knowledge to viewers and is very enjoyable to watch. A09577530
