The Cretan writer Nikos Kazantzakis had a continuous lifelong interest in the figure of Christ, which also had an influence on his literary career. One of his principal works, the novel The Last Temptation, was a modern and heterodox approach to the facts surrounding the life of Jesus of Nazareth‘s, generating massive controversy in many sections of the world‘s religions. Later, the American film director Martin Scorsese faced many problems and schedule delays while trying to adapt the novel for the big screen. And when he finally completed The Last Temptation of Christ, the controversy extended to him and his movie, though the passing of time has eased reactions that were more fanatical than considered.
