The agony and the ecstasy 1965 free download

Standing beneath the finished ceiling, alone after mass, the pope reveals how the commission has transformed him and good-naturedly goads Michelangelo to acknowledge the same. For both men, the image of God reaching out to Adam had become central to their religious perspectives. I reached out my hand to you, like God to Adam, and forced you to accept life. I was moved by another hand.

As easily and skillfully as you move your brush. Strange how He works His will. Let us share pride in having been made His instruments. It is more than that, much more. What has it taught you, Michelangelo? When I stand before the throne I shall throw your ceiling into the balance against my sins, perhaps to shorten my time in Purgatory. In the years following his announcement of the intent to call a council, Pope John XXIII personified that progressive vision of humility before greatness, gratitude for life, and joy in the possibilities of man that the Creation of Adam represented.

In several scenes both the cardinals, who have definite opinions on art suitable for elite liturgical spaces, and Michelangelo appeal to the pope to judge issues related to the ceiling. Unlike John XXIII whose public profile was continuously focused on the world outside the Vatican, in implicit preference to the Curia, Julius II begins as an authoritative figure surrounded by cardinals and more concerned with the politics and finances of the Church.

In the film Michelangelo stands as an emblem for all humankind, whose faith is founded on a more personal and spiritual perspective than the intellectual and institutionally-focused cardinals. Moreover he was also accepted as a public example of the love of God, which ignored Julius, and which Michelangelo displayed on the Sistine Chapel ceiling.

The audience could not help but connect the ideal that inspired and transformed the sixteenth-century artist and pope with the vision pursued in Rome by John XXIII. With the touch of a finger God imbued Adam with life, and gave him grace within the flesh that all humankind shares. But his elevation, physical and spiritual, to the ceiling of the chapel, and the presentation of his connection with God is central to The Agony and The Ecstasy.

Although Michelangelo is never seen attending mass, his work personifies religious devotion and the quest for grace. Openness and Transformation The same audience that had seen Pope Julius in the theater could witness via television the end of the Second Vatican Council on 8 December Accessed December 7, And it is a story of human relations in a simple, sentimental, honest vein.

This dichotomy is in keeping with how the film depicts Julius and Michelangelo in the scene set before The Creation of Adam. When you mock my cardinals you mock me, you mock the Church!
