Trivia
The scenes between John the Baptist, Herod, Herodias, and Salome are supposedly based more on Oscar Wilde's play "Salome", than on the Bible, though Salome's grisly behavior as depicted by Wilde is not shown.
Quotes
Virgin Mary:
I am alone now, share my table.
Mary Magdalene:
I am a woman of sin.
Virgin Mary:
You will share my table.
Mary Magdalene:
I have done much evil.
Virgin Mary:
Child, God knows evil exists as well as good. Just as there is light and darkness. Evil exists that we may be the better for it.
Goofs
The wire holding up the branch on which Judas is hanging is clearly visible, especially when it appears to fall (as the unseen crew lowers it).
