Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Martin Scorsese
Starring: Willem Dafoe, Harvey Keitel, Barbara Hershey, Paul Greco, Steve Shill
Genres: Drama
While on the cross, Jesus (Willem Dafoe) is visited by a little girl. She tells him that he is not the Messiah. Jesus gets off the cross and then lives with Mary Magdalene (Barbara Hershey). They get married and have children. Years later, Jesus is older and dying. He is visited by Judas (Harvey Keitel) who tells him that he's heartbroken because Jesus didn't fulfill his mission of sacrificing himself for humanity. The little girl who visited Jesus while he was crucified is Satan. Jesus leaves his house, goes back to the place of his crucifixion and asks God that he wants to fulfill his mission. Jesus is suddenly on the cross and his life after meeting the little girl (getting married, having a family, growing older, etc.) was a vision/temptation. Jesus says "It is accomplished" and dies on the cross.
