A Question of Faith
From: guest , 111 months, post #1
This movie has intrigued me for a very long time. I have not watched it but I hope to one day. I was just wondering if anyone has and what they thought of it.

Here is a trailer incase people don't know what movie I am talking about.

Why is this here? Proselytize elsewhere

It's not the religious matter that intrigues me it is the MTF that does

That is totally unintelligible from this trailer. Please give more information

SYNOPSIS: Set in a California monastery, a monk named Anselm claims to have been visited and impregnated by the angel Gabriel. When he transforms into a pregnant woman, the monastery is divided about whether it is a miracle, the act of the devil, or an unexplained biological marvel. The Abbot refuses to give credence to story, locks Anselm up and plans on putting the baby up for adoption once it is delivered. After escaping with the help of some monks, she has the baby and continues as a woman raising her child. The film is the directorial debut of Tim Disney, grand-nephew of Walt Disney. The role of Anselm is played by Disney�s wife.

I to have always been curious about this movie.

Link to the Metamorphose.org entry for this movie.

It's been a few or more years since I've seen it. I remember Fornell (Joe Spano) from NCIS and Brass (Paul Guilfoyle) from CSI being in this one... and one other big(er) star.

I thought it was interesting - especially since I was at the time struggling with many social issues versus my religious upbringing. IIRC, it's not worth buying, and it's not worth watching JUST for the TF element. But it was thought-provoking, and (again, IIRC) had good production value to it.

I don't recall any visuals of the transformation process itself, so if you're looking for stuff liking to "Werewolves of London" or any of Mako's stuff, you're not going to get that... my lack of recalling specifics on the TF process means it's likely less technical than the work James does (cudos James for outdoing the big guys).

As for the TG element - It's been too long since I've seen it for me to really give it an accurate assessment. Though, I'm pretty certain I didn't hate it, so there must have been some exploration (philosophical and theological, not physical) of the character with regards to the gender swap.

Message deleted by cj. "Do not attack other posters" It was a legitimate question... albeit with a hasty over-reaction. Making hasty over-reactions due to theological (heck, even ideological) perceptions because we are woefully ignorant of the facts has been an increasingly prevalent trait in humans for millennia.

It's interesting to see this movie pop up in the forum this considering character actor Daniel von Bargen passed away a couple of days ago and he has a part in A Question of Faith.

Also a young Naveen Andrews (Sayid from Lost) has a part.

It was a solid movie that was very thought provoking and has a few interesting noteworthy TG scenes (I remember a medical examination and discussion on breasts) but mostly the theme is about faith, love and the possibility of miracles.
