Just
released on DVD in Australia, this epic film (6.5hrs) Jesus
of Nazareth remains one of the most inspirational films
ever made for tv ministries. Filmed in 1977, Jesus of Nazareth
remains to this day a favourite for many Christians throughout
the world. The director Franco Zeffirelli is believed to
have created one of the most reverantly accurate portrayals
of Christ ever seen on film. It is reported to have been
the late Pope John Paul II favourite film on the life of
Christ.
Beginning before the Nativity and extending through the
Crucifixion and Resurrection, JESUS OF NAZARETH brings to
life all the majesty and sweeping drama of the life of Jesus
(portrayed here by Robert Powell) as told in the gospal.
The film provides the setting and background for the birth,
childhood, baptism, teaching and many miracles of the messiah,
culminating in the Divine Ressurection.
Reportedly Pope John Paul II's favourite
movie on the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Superb Viewing, truly inspirational.
