An overly long version of Christ's story. Von Sydow is great as Jesus, but hearing the Duke's voice as the Centurion pissed me off for some reason.

love these top heavy with stars juggernauts they tossed at you to try to get you out from in front of your teevee sets! and this one drips with maybe too much reverence, and how, oh how can you do that?

The storyline doesn't flow as well as the film Jesus of Nazareth. It's worth a watch, but just doesn't capture the true meaning of the gospel.

This as well as Jesus of Nazareth are films which should be watched more than once a year for the rest of your life! : )

Really long, but pretty accurate telling of Jesus's life, from birth to death. Definitely recommend it.
