Product Description:
A STORY OF THE CHRIST. THE GLORY OF HIS SPOKEN WORDS
Amazon.com:
This 1961 version of Jesus' story gives historical context to the best-known Biblical tale and features many memorable moments, such as a moving Sermon on the Mount and a vixenish Salome dancing for her stepfather in a performance that rivals today's MTV video offerings. Orson Welles keeps the 168-minute film moving along with informative narration helpful to those who haven't read the New Testament in a while. Made with backgrounds that resemble Southern California more than Palestine and a European and American cast--including a blonde, blue-eyed Jesus and an Irish-accented Mary--this movie has the definite stamp of Hollywood. --Kimberly Heinrichs

- King of Kings
King of Kings is an excellent movie on the life and death and resurrection.This breezes by the birth of Christ and takes us through his ministry with his apostles. His Crucifixtion is quite dramatic and brings home the humbleness, love, and forgiveness.
Rating: - Classic Easter Movie
I purchased this movie mainly because I was used to watching this on Turner Classic Movies every Easter. As far as I'm concerned it is the best of these old-school Jesus-biographical movies (excluding Passion of the Christ). King of Kings is not as intense as Passion of the Christ and I can watch this over and over. This is not so much as a review other than my personal choice.
Rating: - Regal service from this distributor
Regal service from this distributor for my purchase from them of the film, "King of Kings." Excellent product, speedy delivery..no complaints. Would order from them again.
Beautiful movie, excels in explaining the world Christ came into and itspolitics, and his Messianic ministry. Gorgeous music, photography, excellent acting all around, costumes...spiritually moving. Brought me much closer to Christ.

- King of Kings Movie
The King of Kings is one of the Great Christian Movies, of all time.
It is well filmed, and the print quality is excellent. We need more
movies like this one. Especially when sacrilegious movies come out,
that like to undermine, the Christian Faith. It is a great addition
to my collection, and will be viewed many Easters from now. I recommend
it to anyone looking for good family, and Christian entertainment. You
can show this film to your grandchildren, your younger ... Read More
