 | "Angelique is the image of God in this movie and an
unusual image of God she, beginning with the fact that Angelique is
a woman. Not only is Angelique a woman, but she is a sexually
attractive woman and, as death nears, Angelique removes her hat and
veil and lets her hair down, becoming even more sexually attractive.
As though this were not enough, it is also obvious that Angelique
finds Joe Gideon sexually desirable." ("Images
of God in the Movies," by Andrew M. Greeley, Journal of Religion and Film,
1997.) |
