Family history is compelling and the internet has made genealogy really fun and accessible. I think that's some of the appeal of the Bloodline story and movie. We women have an unmet need to know our own stories, which are harder to find than the stories of our male ancestors. I've been doing genealogy for a few years and I'll never forget that moment when I came across the record for my Callahan ancestor in 1776 and saw his wife listed as "Mrs. Thomas Callahan". No name of her own !
We've felt this way about Mary Magdalene the "Lost Bride", wanting to know everything we can about her /our family story. I hope the Bloodline movie is a little like reading a good article in Family Tree Magazine on "Searching Your Female Ancestors".
Of course, I realize that the very most important thing is that we all understand that its "spiritual DNA" that we all share in and that Mary Magdalene is the "lost feminine principle" that the world needs now to "heal the wasteland" and "make the desert bloom".
But the mysteries and clues of genealogy and family history are still satisfying.
I recently learned that there are portions of Margaret Starbird's Bloodline-the Movie interview avaialble on the web. http://bloodlinethemovie.blip.tv/#846914
I'll be seeing Bloodline this week and I can't wait to tell you about it!

I am so intrigued by this movie, but my computer connection is too slow to download much. I did see the segment with Margaret and enjoyed that interview.
It looks like Blip tv has quite a lot of the story of Bloodline on its site, but I could only see a few seconds before my computer froze. I also cannot get into the Bloodline website -- again slow connection.
Joan, are you seeing a preview or is the movie out in your area?
I can't wait to see it myself for all kinds of reasons. Just getting some more "worldly" information about the everyday lives of Jesus and Mary Magdalene will be wonderful.
And I admit it, I love mysteries, both worldly ones and sacred ones.

Hi,
I was lucky enough to see the film in LA while I was there, the theater was packed and there was such a buzz about the film that I was even more excited to see it than I had been before arriving. I was not disappointed, the film was enthralling from start to finish. I don't want to give anything away about the film in case I ruin it for you but I highly recommend you go and see it. It is very thought provoking and I often find my self thinking about it without realizing a week later.
I think the film, because of its subject matter, will receive its fair share of adverse critique but I think Bloodline will be one of those films that the public and not the critics will decide on its success. If you look at the bestseller book charts, the majority of them received a bad review from the so called experts, yet the public loved them. I look forward to reading your comments on the film once you have seen it.

Thanks for your comment, Josh. I noticed that they put the film in two more theaters here in L.A. , so that says something about the growing interest in the subject. I've noticed that seeing the film seeded some interest in me about the Knights Templar, and I'm reading Karen Ralls book The Templars and the Grail. A couple years ago I had a dream of needing protection and having a kind of "special forces" group of men who helped me. I experienced a feeling of complete safety in the dream, which felt unusual. I was interested to see that Karen Ralls calls the Templars a kind of "special forces" of that time. .......I will be very curious to see the excavation film made this summer when they begin to find out who the "lady in the Templar shroud" is.
