Amazon.com essential video:
Originally made for TV in 1977, this in-depth (six hours plus) version of Jesus' life is so thorough that the first hour is devoted solely to the story of his birth. The film doesn't skimp on some of the other landmark events of this famous story either. Director Franco Zeffirelli gives more than 12 minutes screen time each to the Last Supper and the Crucifixion. Passages of the Bible are quoted verbatim, the locations have a Palestine-like authenticity, and, aside from some of the principals (Robert Powell as Jesus, Olivia Hussey as Mary, and Stacy Keach as Barabbas), many of the non-Roman characters are actually played by Semitic-looking actors. Zeffirelli diligently provides the sociopolitical background that gave rise to Jesus' following and the crisis in belief it caused for the people of Israel (and one or two Romans). While not graphic by today's standards, some of the scenes--baby boys being ripped from their mothers' arms and slaughtered, nails being driven into Jesus' hands--may disturb young and/or sensitive children. --Kimberly Heinrichs

The story is a compilation of several Gospels and encompases the whole of his life (per documented accounting in the bible). It is an awesome movie - despite the droning musical soundtrack. :)
This Jesus is lovely to look at, but sometimes he seems possessed and dead or wooden rather than peaceful. But, he does do wonderful justice to his peaceful, merciful and loving nature and does display some of his passionate nature.
This was my favorite all time Jesus movie until ... Read More

As a child, no TV image comes out as clearly and emotional as Robert Powells eyes and glances during the whole length of his scenes during this production; is truly bewitching and one must admit, Zeffirelli distilled pured genius when designing the character... Jesus is in fact DIVINE.
Overall, I find this -being an Atheist, i've always had a fascination for Christian/religious films- the finest adaptation to what in my eyes, could have been the life of christ. However shot it Morroco and Tunisia, ... Read More

Many have allready noted the positive elements of this movie and I am only reverberating their comments. This movie is a masterpiece. In my opinion no actor has portrayed Christ as human and mystical as Robert Powell. He gave a trully sublime performance. Although this role may have type casted him in the states, he still had a very fruitful career.
The Casting was exceptional, and although this is made for TV miniseries, it still holds up after all these years for many reasons. Anne ... Read More

This film has it all. It is absolutely splendid and uplifting. Great care has been taken with the biblical verses and with period costuming, as well as geographical setting. Though filmed in Tunisia and Morocco, the landscape and buildings in this movie are consistent with first century CE Judea. The chracters are wonderfully type-cast, and the cinematography is excellent. It does not completely follow Scripture, and a few fictional characters do appear-- for example the sinister scribe Zerah-- but my ... Read More

In my opinion, this is one of the greatest movies of all time, and by far the best movie about the life and death of Jesus ever made. It boasts an all star cast of some of the greatest actors imaginable, and it is not only quite moving but also very extremely accurate when compared to the Bible. I love this movie, and it is a tradition at my house to watch it and celebrate its message each Easter. Truly 5 stars.
