What We Think

Not exactly the poster child for wokeness, but ‘The Last Temptation of Christ’ certainly rattled some cultural cages with its revisionist narrative. Still, its focus isn’t on today’s ideological trends, but rather on a provocative spiritual reinterpretation.

Woke

What is this?

Many viewers interpret the film as undermining traditional Christian beliefs by reimagining Jesus grappling with human temptations and doubts. This revisionist approach challenged established religious narratives, which could be seen as antagonistic to traditional values.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

The film favors a singular, controversial interpretation of the Christ story, with little room for traditional or dissenting perspectives, but it isn’t preoccupied with contemporary social justice ideology or groupthink.
