hal hartley entry into a european film series be one of his two or three best effort to date and and and lucklily and one of the few available on dvd . at only 63 minute run time and my only quibble would be with hartley i always leave want more and but never so much a this time . martin donovan be astonish a jesus . pj harvey be beautiful and interesting a magdelena and but the high point for me be thomas jay ryan ( henry fool ) a satan . hartley give him excellent dialogue and a chance to use his resound voice to full effect . look for three scene in which a microphone await him and a if a poetry slam be about to be win by the devil . i have read other comment on this film and have to add mine because there be not enough praise go around . if you like henry fool and martin donovan in anything ( opposite of sex ) and and or or very clever comedy base on biblical idea and get this as quickly a possible .
