Martin Scorsese was a vlogger way before the term exist and what a fun experiment this was. The man and his video camera registered a
little portion of the behind the scenes from his classic "The Last Temptation of Christ" in the Morocco location. Stars Willem Dafoe, Andre Gregory,
John Lurie and Harvey Keitel appear during filming in between curious and amusing moments in the long shooting, barely reflecting the exact nature of
a serious and religious experience as adapted from Nikos Kazantzakis book.
It's far from the typical making of we're used to see, as Marty carries the camera with him, details what they're about to shoot the next day, the
complications and logistic of everything and then he proceeds with distant shoots from cast, crew and the extras in movement. It's a pity that his video
diary wasn't longer and done each day, from the film conception up until his editing, as it is a film I have the utmost respect and consider one of his
finest. A bigger pity that the studio did not release it as a bonus material on the DVD, neither the audio commentary track, at least here in Brazil.
Only major releases from that decade earned interesting and fascinating materials back in the day, and this one was pretty good and should attract a wider
audience to witness the brilliance of Scorsese in movie making. 9/10.
