Ave,
sorry for the lack of postings by me in recent time but there were urgent family matters I had to attend to....
Now I am back with this stuff:
"Anno Domini - The Bible Continues" Season 1 Episode 4
I dont know who has followed the series, its now at season 1, episode 11 but regarding our "special interest" there is one episode which may be of interest for our group:
Its episode 4.
In this story a rebel Jewish assassin tries to kill Pontius Pilate, but misses him and kills another Roman officer and escapes. In his rage Pilate orders that every day ten Jews are to be crucified until the assassin is being captured or is going to surrender.
The interesting point here is, that, to make the punishment for the Jew collective even worse, the Romans crucify primary their boys and very young men.
Since the series is "christian family"-friendly there is no nakedness obviously and not too much cruelty shown, but nevertheless there are some interesting scenes. In the first scene some boys are being arrested in some type of school and led directly to crucifixion. Even if I have to admit, that the "acting" of the extras they casted in the making of this episode is really pretty bad, you can see the fear in the face of the first boy who is arrested to get executed. In the next interesting scene you can see hanging him on the cross.
Its the same crucifixion method they used in episode 1 on Jesus - tall crosses with nailing through the palms. The victims were not flogged and did not have to carry their cross or crossbeam. They are directly arrested in the city and led to execution. Another scene shows a second arrest with more young men being led to Golgotha. A Roman soldier blows some type of horn as a signal for the people that the next crucifixion is about to begin.
The third interesting scene shows these young victims, after they have been stripped down to their loinclothes, arriving at the place of crucifixion (which is not being shown, what a pity) with a really cute youth with curly hair being the first. The scene closes with two soldiers throwing the dead body of another young victim onto a heap with other dead corpses.
In the last interesting scene a desparate father watches the crucifixion of his sisters young son.
All scenes are pretty short, not too gruesome and not exactly well played - but in summary its worth checking out since I have never seen crucifixion stuff with such explicit focus on the fact that (in the context of this fictional story, of course) almost every victim here is a boy or a youth.
If you are unsure if its worth getting please check out the pictures I included.
Enjoy.
best regards
Ty.
