The King

The King was an interesting film with a solid working cast of William Hurt and Gael Garcia Bernal. It dealt with the controversy of Religion and the hypocricy that some members of the church use for personal gain. Bernal plays the son of Hurt's character and he comes back to his father with a sense of "immorality" which frightens the Christian town. He sleeps with his father's daughter and kills his father's son. The film was good but nothing great, but it was interesting for a film to take a unique viewpoint of the religious popularity of some American landscapes.
