whether he would have been able to handle that shift in worldview, or whether he would only have succumbed and imploded; he's run on faith and guilt his entire life, and why should he stop now?
Every religion has its, erm, orthodox adherents (and converts tend to be the most orthodox of all); it seems to me he'd have just been trading one set of strictures for another. After all, he already sees the religion they profess as ... not confining, but... can't think of the right word. Tunnel vision will do that to ya.
Even this version? It was released from studio tapes in 2002.
Interesting! Different track list than the version I scored a couple of years ago, so it's definitely a different disc... I'll be on the lookout for this to see if it really is the holy grail.
Although "Corn Rigs and Barley Rigs" does not appear with its traditional tune; I had been hoping.
Well, you have to appease the folky kids an' all that. At least it does appear in the 99-minute cut (if I recall correctly, it gets VERY short shrift in the theatrical release).
I really did like how the audience was not hit over the head with the finale:
That's it: we're not hit over the head with anything (except Britt Eklund, and really, how awful is that?). That's what the remake-- and so very, very many other movies-- completely fail to grasp. That we can figure it out on our own.
