I loved every second, but the set up, to the meeting between fathers was basically just good character development. From that point on, I am in awe. I'd argue, that there aren't five better films in the history of cinema from that point forward.

Hauntingly good, high keep sake value, and a work of treasure. Just that it's not an easy film without the relief at the end. the effect at the end it should be noted is because of the power of divinity in Jesus Christ, and not specifically the human nature causing it,
