The musical movie Jesus Christ Superstar was released in the 70's with Ted Neeley as JC. It was about the last 7 days of Jesus in Jerusalem before his crucifixion. Some didn't like it, because they say it was blasphemous; others say it was a movie that brought Jesus closer to the new generation. What about you? What are your thoughts on the movie?

i saw this on stage at the boarding house in the 70's. yes, i'm that old. i also saw the movie. the music was inspiring ! i was a love child of the 60's. living in san francisco at the time. yes, it was the end of the hippy era (which i'm still there), and a way to bring a new version to a new generation. simply put: a musical interepretation of his last days. myself, i thought it was wonderful. it did push the envelope at that time. artistic interpretation and so forth.
