Mary Page #6

Synopsis: Three characters linked by the mythical Maria Maddalena - Mary Magdalene... Tony Childress, an infamous, egotistical and obsessive actor/director is playing the lead role of Jesus in his controversial new film THIS IS MY BLOOD. When the shoot wraps, Marie Palesi, his lead actress, is left alone in Jerusalem, drained, empty. 'Selfless'. Into the void within her is poured the spirit of Mary Magdalene, and Marie embarks on a profound journey towards enlightenment. Meanwhile, in New York City, tv journalist Ted Younger begins his own quest for spiritual truth through his documentary about the life of Christ. When the premiere of Tony's film becomes the target of bomb threats by the vengeful religious Right, the lives and paths of these three characters come dramatically together.

come in the theatre

and there is no bomb...

What's going on?

Step out, step out.

Come on now.

Everybody just go on back

to your seats, there is no problem.

Just go back to your seats. What

are you doing, man? This is my movie.

Come on!

Everybody go back to your seats.

There's no bomb in here. It was a

false alarm. There's no bomb in here.

Get him out, get him out!

Alright. Good.

Didn't you hear the warning?

There's a bomb in the building.

That's right.

You don't want to be

the projectionist?

What's going on here?

Up here.

Keep searching. C'mon.

I'll show you a bomb.

-Hey, what's going on?

-Turn the lights on up there.

Put the light!

-Hey Tony. Come on out!

-There ain't no bomb!

Tony, you've got to leave

the building. Come on, man!

The only bomb is the one

that's in your f***ing heart, man!

There ain't no bomb.

Who are they to decide?

How do they know

what's right and what's wrong?

The Pope in Rome?

He knows the truth?

What are they going to f***ing

hotline to Rome, to God?

You don't let me play my movie, you

might as well take the constitution

and wipe your ass with it.

Yeah.

You hear that? We got lines

around the block at Philly.

You are blessed,

for the sight of me

does not disturb you.

There where is the noose

lies the treasure.

Where do you come from, murderery?.

And where are you going, wanderery?.

-My craving has faded

-It's not what you see

-with your eyes.

-and I am freed from my ignorance.

-It's what you see with your heart.

-I lived the world

with the aid of another world.

A design was erased

by virtue of the Higher Design.

Henceforth, I travel toward repose,

where times rest

in the eternity of time.

I go now into silence.

So why should I forgive you?

Well, I'm going to prove to you

that I'm different,

every day over the...

I'm going to show you

how much I love you. Every day.

Every moment you're going

to know how much I...

I f***ed up, just f***ed up.

You know...
