No I am not talking about the Matrix, Star Wars, Godfather, or Scarface.
I am talking about a movie much more superior both in terms of content and in terms of arts of cinema. Yes I am talking about The Message. The story of Islam. That is the best movie Hollywood ever made. Staring with Anthony Quinn, may he rest in peace.
Yes the movie is controversial. I have heard the director of that movie was warned not to make any more religious movies or else he would not be funded any more. And Anthony Quinn himself was not offer any major movies after that for a while. But the movie is simply simple and beautiful. And for the most part it shows a good part of Islam and its early history.
Anyway watching the movie in English is different than watching it in Farsi. Specially if you watch it after IRI era, they have modified it a bit so it can fit according to their side of Islam.
So I was drawn to watch it again, and on YouTube having the power of fast forwarding past the scenes you don’t like (in my case the wars), I really enjoyed
