The one I've watched and enjoyed the most was The Ten Commandments but I also enjoyed The Greatest Story Ever Told quite a bit too. I liked on some level Sodom and Gomorrah (1962) and Abraham (1994) but think they are lesser films than many others mentioned here.

Watched much of KING OF KINGS (1961) tonight.   Thumbup

Continuing with Peter's soliloquy from THE SILVER CHALICE:
"...and long, bitter wars... in such a world as that, the little cup will look very lonely.  But it may be, in that age, when Man holds lightening in his hands, and rides the sky as Simon the Magician strove to do, it will be needed more than it is needed now..."  Lookingup  Drink Happy Easter, Jeaster Crisis.

Mofo, is Last Temptation of the Christ worth it to watch?  I'm sorta curious to see it...

I thought it was great. It does take a different approach, and is quite eerie at times.

The soundtrack by Peter Gabriel is pretty classic, too.

This is a subject fraught with peril.

I thought The Passion of the Christ was a very poor retelling of the passion play.

About Gibson's Passion film, I know Satanists and Christians alike who love that film.  I watched it with my mom last Easter and I thought that it was... okay.  Really, I wasn't disturbed by it, and, at least then, I considered myself a Christian.  I guess it could be good as a teaching tool, and maybe a scare tactic by some churches.

Mofo, is Last Temptation of the Christ worth it to watch?  I'm sorta curious to see it...

The Passion of the Christ is part is a well-made film, but it is part torture porn.

I saw The Last Temptation of Christ on opening night in Hollywood, standing for 45 minutes in line next to Warren Zevon while Christian groups and counter groups yelled at each other and performance artists did some rather bizarre and offensive displays. Fun times.

BARABBAS is a very interesting low-budget Italian production that yielded yet another unusual and challenging film..

At the moment, these newer youtubes are working, but most of the old ones are dead ends.  

I like BIBLICAL movies at this time of year.  


I WAS A TEENAGE JESUS:

Now, this film is looked at a bit more closely because NICHOLAS RAY directed.  I always liked it.

I liked The Passion Of The Christ a lot more than I expected mainly because I'm not the most religoius person in the world, but I thought it was well done. I could understand the "torture porn" comment though.

BIBLICAL PIX ~ Which do you enjoy?  Which don't you?  

KING OF KINGS (1961 ~ aka I WAS A TEENAGE JESUS) was always a major treat to watch around Easter time.  
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFh5k0ffl9k&feature=related
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHdBFK3qi0c  

Here's a peek at THE SILVER CHALICE (1954) which is a must-see not for the fact that it's PAUL NEWMAN's first film-but because it's so bad, it's good... stagey, forced, bizarre junk, this clip is the highlight of the film, JACK PALANCE, wearing Riddler tights, "flies"...  Wink Bluesad BounceGiggle Twirling  
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_bPowYHnfE&feature=related  

These segments are long, but it's the very end when PAUL NEWMAN is leaving on the boat... and Peter or whoever he is gives him "The Speech" which booms across the water... starting about 5:45 minutes into the clip...  Lookingup  "...the little cup will look very lonely..."   Hatred   BounceGiggle  Twirling

Great soundtrack on King Of Kings.
