another problem with it

Well, two. Lots of repetition (an awful lot has to be three times). And the singing - not the period instrumental band, not Monteverdi, but the male singer who not very beautifully keeps droning all that ritual malarkey. One dose of it would be more than enough, but that also has to be repeated (and repeated, yes?) Much harder to take than the hardly-seen rape scene people like to go on about.

Incidentally, wouldn't 'The Child of Macon' or 'The Infant of Macon' be a better title than 'The Baby of Macon'? I think so.
