the author of the Parable script.
Chief character in the 22-minute film is a clown called Mime, who plays the role of a committed Christian. It is this character which has brought on controversy among church people, since he can be identified with Christ, depending on individual interpretation. Two members of the sponsoring Council actually resigned over this point.
Filmed in a circus atmosphere (at Baraboo, Wis), the film shows
Mime taking upon himself various disagreeable tasks. Each of his actions win him the friendship of underdogs and the emnity of his masters, who kill him in a brutal attack while he is dangling on the puppet strings of Magnus, the antagonist who induces the tragedy. In the end. a white clown, who can be identified as either Mime, Magnus, or Christ, is seen riding on a donkey behind a circus, a scene almost identical to the one opening the film. •
