It is possible some of my readers do not know that remarkably... memorable image of our Saviour "Buddy Christ" - which was a briefly glimpsed statue, peripheral to the plot of a rather mediocre 1999 film called Dogma.
Such is the genius of this movie prop that it has since become a lasting cultural phenomenon.
Francis Berger and I try to analyse the greatness of this icon in the comments to a post at his blog; which is primarily about another (for rather different reasons) striking image of Jesus:
Buddy Christ was the only thing I liked about Dogma. Glad to see I'm not alone!
ReplyDeleteBuddy Christ is the only thing I remember from that movie. Thanks for resurrecting the fun memory!
