1) DVD DVD King of Kings by Warner Home Video. I had bought King of Kings originally on VHS, now that I have purchased it on DVD the clarity of the video is far more superior. As for the movie it gives you an understanding on what Jesus had gone through in his life here on earth,and also to give direction to the people into guiding them in having faith and to believe that God is there to help them. It doesn´t matter what you go through God is always there. Overall this is a great movie to start with, very easy to understand, and also to make you think......¤ 2) DVD DVD King of Kings by Warner Home Video. rent it first jeff hunter just reads the script no emotion poor acting, great music score by rosza¤ 3) DVD DVD King of Kings by Warner Home Video. This is the best portrayal of the Life of Jesus Christ ever made. Jeffrey Hunter does an excellent job of playing this part.¤ 4) DVD DVD King of Kings by Warner Home Video. ***1/2 1961. Directed by Nicholas Ray. One nomination for the Golden Globes (Best Musical Score). The life of Jesus of Nazareth. Not bad if you can endure the Hollywood treatment of the Gospels. The production design is good and the actors convincing. For once, the screenwriter didn´t focus the action on the main character alone who, if I´m correct, doesn´t appear on the screen more than half of the film. Apart to the fans of this special kind of production, KING OF KINGS will appeal to Nicholas Ray completists only because the mark of the director is not very visible here to say the least. A curiosity.¤ 5) DVD DVD King of Kings by Warner Home Video. King of Kings is one of my favorite movies from the moment that I saw it. I love the cast, I love the clothes, the drama and the emotion behind the film. And I love Jeffrey Hunter in this role very much. I think he balances perfectly the devotion of the Christ but at the same the tenderness that he displayed. My favorite part in the film is where he cures the crippled boy without touching him and to see the joy reflected in that child´s face echoed my own. I love this film and it is part of my special library! I would definitely purchase it over and over again...¤ 6) DVD DVD King of Kings by Warner Home Video. The life of Jesus Christ is powerfully chronicled in this intelligent, gripping epic starring JEFFREY HUNTER, ROBERT RYAN, RIP TORN and a cast of thousands. From the producer of the epic spectaculars El Cid and The Fall of the Roman Empire and the director of Rebel Without a Cause and 55 Days at Peking comes a vivid retelling of the world´s greatest story.¤ 7) DVD DVD King of Kings by Warner Home Video. 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¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
