What amazes me most about this story is that 2000 years or so have passed and your opening chapter could be happening today subbing in a Palestinian girl and Israeli soldier.

In fact that’s what I thought was happening till I got a bit further into it.

Interesting take on the well known story. It’s not often you see a humanisation of these characters (historical figures for those that prefer) and you do a good possible insight into the thoughts and emotions of Mary Magdalene. Nice job with all three (John and Simon Peter too).

I wonder if it will be more of a challenge to humanise the other Mary in this way. I suspect it would be harder to pull off convincingly. But that’s by-the-by, I think you did a fair job here. Nothing offensive about it either, but then I didn’t find anything offensive in the Life of Brian – so go figure.
