But although the film has been debated, derided and in some cities picketed, many seemed to think that fears that the Jewish community would experience a backlash from the depiction of Jews in the film were overstated. As many moviegoers on Wednesday said, if there is a group that should be mounting a protest, it is the descendants of Roman soldiers. In "Passion,'' the Romans are not only seen torturing Jesus in excruciating detail, they also often laugh sadistically while doing so.
"It was interesting, the whole Jewish backlash,'' said Jodie McFarland of Alamo. "To me, being married to an Italian man, I thought the whole Italian- Roman thing was more controversial. I don't remember hearing about them being so gleeful.''
Dude.
-Dude-.
I'm sure there was like, Jimmy the Roman Pussy, who wept after Jesus died cuz he was cool, but as for the rest that was their fucking society. Next some motherfucker is going to say that this movie puts their ancient ancestor, Maximus the Cross-Maker, in a bad light. So how was the show?
