My friend Mike Leary has written a
great review of Abel Ferrara's
Mary, where, amongst other things, he gives more specific references for the quotations from the Gospel of Mary than my own
scene analysis. Here's a brief sample, but I encourage you to read the whole thing:
Mary is likewise burdened by Ferrara’s "messiness," but this time that messiness works with the grain of his characters in a realistic scramble for faith and redemption. Faith is messy, the search for the historical Jesus is messy, and fortunately, so is Ferrara’s film.
