Yet he chose not to claim it. He just did his duty.<BR/><BR/>All sorts of people, good bad and ugly, wear christian symbols during the movie.

I'm interested in the movie (it looks like a cool period piece, and said period is one I'm probably going to run shortly). But I don't want to waste my time on a film that's whole purpose is dogmatic vehicle. <BR/><BR/>I don't say that because I'm anti-dogma, simply that dogma, on its' own, will not satisfy my tastes.
