A cool ending in which the Iron Giant sacrifices himself to save his friends. A great example of the gospel's theme weaving itself into a story. Whether intended or not, certain wonderful truths about the gospel are often illustrated all around us. This video is cut together with various scenes of the movie to the musical soundtrack of the movie Fargo. I think the music is appropriately poignant and the scenes illustrate the themes of innocence, love, protection, restrained power, mystery and self sacrifice. In one of his sermons, Tim Keller recalls the way the Iron Giant looks as he sends himself toward destruction with the knowledge that his own suffering provides life for his friends.
