not one mention of the awful shit missionaries often did when 'spreading the word'

just endless pity on the part of garfields character crying about those dying for their faith

my heart did go out to those innocent japanese believers

but a movie this long, with so many scenes of torture and debate (mainly about how christianity just wont survive in a different culture.. specific to japan here, but basically just martyrdom - WE TRIED BUT WE COULDNT DO IT! POOR US!), and not one scene or mention of the crimes of missionaries

not sure i need this film in my life

looks incredible though. and its often beautiful. and i loved the debates. but to me, its a film that only wants to tell you one thing, over and over, and does not want to entertain any alternative views on missionaries.

a lot of ppl love this film. i guess its the ultimate christianity glorification movie.
