Here's a link to a review of the movie. The author uses specific details, and also outlines the plot.<br />

Look at the second review by matthewscott8.<br />

I also found this video of Lauryn Hill's song "Mystery of Iniquity."<br />

The artist includes the lyrics to the song. It is interesting to see how the song is manifested in text. I also think that the song is an example of JP's theory that "An artists is a child playing in the trashship of history." Lauryn Hill uses biblical IDs throughout the song, perhaps likening the fall of modern politics to that of original evil. <br />
