Résumé anglais |
Scorsese draws a personal portrait of Christ tempted to « get off the cross and live the rest of His life as a normal human being ». The scandal created was not so much due to its « pornographic » content as to the suggestion that Christ might have been tempted to renounce his sacrifice. This paper presents the anti-Temptation campaign as an illustration of the violence that may be generated by blind, noninstitutional, fundamentalist censorship at local (possibly level, and to show how such censorship is primarily a matter of local pressure usually counterbalanced by the power of Federal constitutional authority.
