Negative real rates of return, part II
Apocalypto, yes storage costs for goods are positive in the movie. The film is about theology; virtually frame-by-frame it is commentary on Passion of the Christ, the Bible, or both. Call it mishnah, if you wish; the reviews I read didn’t get this at all. The movie’s central question is what the idea of a miracle, or salvation, can mean in a non-Christian world. I found it remarkable, but I can’t imagine it drawing many viewers beyond the curious, the omnivorous, the Mayan, and the deeply committed.
Here is my previous post on negative rates of return. Comments are open, but if you wish to simply complain about Mel Gibson, please use this old space.
Addendum: Here are reviews.
