Sarah Silverman: Jesus is Magic


Sarah Silverman is the most outrageously funny woman alive. If you want proof of that declarative sentence, see Jesus Is Magic, a Silverman symposium that is part concert film (shot last year at North Hollywoods El Portal Theater), part comedy skits with Brian Posehn and Bob Odenkirk, part song parodies and part message from Mars or whatever planet still warms to jokes about 9/11, the Holocaust, grandmas anal rape and sex education (The best time to have a baby is when youre a black teenager). Except for Silverman the twisted mans hottie the film isnt much to look at. But director Liam Lynch knows to keep the focus on the star. Like Lenny Bruce and Richard Pryor, Silverman laughs at racism to undercut its power. I hope the Jews did kill Christ, she rages. Id do it again. Jesus, indeed.
