Jesus of Nazareth (DVD, 2001, 2-Disc Set; Sensormatic Security Tag)

This film which stars many that we all know introduced a new person on the scene, Robert Powell. Unknown in his own right, Mr. Powell, finds that he is faced with a delimma.Another actor could have done the job, but they all refused.Robert Powell, knew that to portray Christ in a film, would end his acting career. A performance of a life time, as he put it. Robert Powell, portrays Christ in the last section of the ministry, from being baptized by John in the Jordan to the cruxifiction. A moving story about Christ as a child to adult hood. From baptizmal to cruxification. Not just an Easter story, this is a film, that still moves alot of people who have made the wonderful journey from ungodly to Christ follower.
Filmed in the middle East, and London England and the United States, this is the epic tale of Christ from scriptures. This is to be put on the shelf next to Passion of the christ!
Every film about Christs life is always filled with doubters, and unbelievers, this film is no different. Personally I would like to see someone make a film on the filming of all the movies about Christ. That would be worth while.
I gave this film 5, for the performance of a lifetime by Robert Powell, the scenery and the story from Scriptures.
