The author analyses the literary tropes of Martin Scorsese's 'The Last Temptation of Christ'. He is primarily interested in the discrepancies between the cinematic version of the film and its literary archetype. He also tries to identify to what extent Frederick Nietzsche's anti-Christian philosophy, which greatly influenced Nikos Kazantzakis, spread to Scorsese's film. He questions the popular belief as if 'The Last Temptation of Christ' perfectly fitted the neo-pagan theology of New Age Movement. Eventually, identifying the dialectic struggle of opposition as the central theme of the film under discussion, the author considers 'The Last Temptation' in the context of antagonisms present in the novels of Fyodor Dostoyevski who - like Scorsese - thought that man's faith remains dynamic as long as it is true.
