 | The Last Temptation of Christ.
While William began appearing in films in 1980 it was his staring roll as Jesus in "The Last Temptation Of Christ" that was considered his breakthrough roll.
The movie was fraught with controversy. It was banned in several major cities and the rental chain "Block Busters" refused to carry it. Critic Roger Ebert who was raised Catholic praised it as a film but, admitted it was blasphemous.
Dafoe said; "I still can't believe I was so brazen to think I could pull off the Jesus role. I later met Max von Sydow (the Christ of "The Greatest Story Ever Told") and he said, 'Willem, we are members of a very exclusive fraternity.' "
