Silence

[Stewball]

Epic production on all counts, especially the drama, but the only thing left wanting is iterating the obvious explanation for its title: Why God, if It exists, is silent and non-interactive? Even though many, including yours truly, have offered a good explanation for that (free will), Scorsese chose to demure--leaving everything up in the air (so to speak) with the enigmatic icon in the priest's hand at the end begging the question of what it is he IS trying to say. Oddly, I don't remember Hell or the Devil being mentioned. 8/10
