But the movie is all there, all 2 hours plus of it, the entire story with everything. Beto saw that cut and he was so impressed that he can&#8217;t stop talking about it.

Of those many movies, there are four about to be produced one after the other. Each centered in one of our courageous and committed actresses.

Each beautiful victim will star in her own nasty crucifixion story and each will experience a different style of crucifixion, one more painful than the other or the other way around. All of that in Roman times, of course, and the stories will be painfully linked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, for now, the suffering ladies are going through some very nasty rehearsals in preparation for the new productions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"567\" src=\"https:\/\/redfeline.com\/chronicles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CX6ScreenShot20230907201534-1024x567.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5052\" srcset=\"https:\/\/redfeline.com\/chronicles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CX6ScreenShot20230907201534-1024x567.png 1024w, https:\/\/redfeline.com\/chronicles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CX6ScreenShot20230907201534-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/redfeline.com\/chronicles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CX6ScreenShot20230907201534-768x425.png 768w, https:\/\/redfeline.com\/chronicles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CX6ScreenShot20230907201534-1536x850.png 1536w, https:\/\/redfeline.com\/chronicles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CX6ScreenShot20230907201534.png 1864w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Because of all the immersion of all senses, all the worries, all the attention to details that took to produce <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Seditiosa<\/mark><\/strong> and <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-pale-pink-color\">69<\/mark><\/strong>, all the way from pre production through production and the post production of both films, Jac was somewhat saturated. It is not easy to produce two large films simultaneously. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, we did precisely that a few times, one of those times we produced three large budget films, <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Maleficarum<\/mark><\/strong>, <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-pale-cyan-blue-color\">Barbazul<\/mark><\/strong> and <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-pale-pink-color\">Les Marquis de la Croix<\/mark><\/strong> simultaneously.
