Wednesday 23rd December – Nativity DVD Chicanery

We watch Lily’s nativity on DVD (£7.50 a pop…a bargain?) To be honest, the cameraman did a professional job, in fact, it starts like a Sergio Leone movie. The nativity play itself is actually a recording of the rehersal, rather than the performance that parents were privvy to. As the biblical story unfolds, I cannot help but notice the almost pagan overtones and before the Messiah’s umbilical cord as even been cut, I worry that Joseph is going to be dragged off by the three kings to be sacrificed in a giant wickerman out in the playground. Anyway, Lily’s performance is outstanding, even though it cost us around one pound per second. Still, I can make that back by charging a tenner for the grandparents’ copies.
