Title: The Crying Prophet
Review: Jeremiah was once called the Crying Prophet as it was well depicted here. It would be difficult to speak against your family, your king, your country -- you could get lowered into a cistern. Holy crap! (Sorry for that..) However, that's literally what happened.The Book of Jeremiah is a long story that skips around chronically, which should have made it difficult to tell theatrically. There's so much in this movie: The Lord depicted as a little girl, and a older shepherd, Jeremiah crying for a sign from God, then appears Baruch, the torture of the king, the jails, etc.More of God's prophecies could have been part of the movie, but that's okay. The Book of Jeremiah is a lengthy one. This movie accomplishes much for me; I gained insight about the divine strength that broke through the personal weaknesses that were inherently within the man Jeremiah. I did not want this movie to end.
