Who is Jesus and why does he powerfully impact all he meets? He is respected and reviled, emulated and accused, beloved, betrayed and finally crucified. Yet that terrible fate would not be the end of the story.

The scale is huge (7,000 extras in the Sermon on the Mount scene alone). The mood is reverent. The music is another milestone in the career of composer Miklos Rozsa. The performances of a splendid cast-with charismatic Jeffrey Hunter at the center-are real and moving. 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, the saga of the Nazarene who would be King of Kings.

Das Leben des Jesus von Nazareth von der Geburt bis zur Kreuzigung, aufwendig inszeniert in überwältigenden Bildern, nach der Vorlage des Neuen Testaments. Regisseur Nicholas Ray und Drehbuchautor Philip Yordan, dies schon bei Rays Western-Klassiker "Jonny Guitar" zusammengearbeitet hatten, waren 1961 die ersten Filmemacher, die die Person Jesu Christi in den Mittelpunkt eines Spielfilms stellten. Ihr monumentales Meisterwerk mit seinen spektakulären Massenszenen und der grossartigen Musik von Miklós Rózsa gilt bis heute als eine der gelungensten Verfilmungen biblischer Geschichte.
