"La vita del Messia. (Moscati)."
"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, die schon bei Rays Western-Klassiker "Johnny 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 Miklos Rozsa gilt bis heute als eine der gelungensten Verfilmungen biblischer Geschichte."
"The story of the life of Christ, describing certain events that took place between Romans and Jews and setting the political background for the life of Christ, and the personalities and ideas of the New Testament. Built upon a series of narrative parallels and contrasts between Jesus and Barrabas. The film portrays the thief as a rebel leader of the Jewish resistance. Unlike Jesus, who preaches a message of peace, Barrabas advocates violence as a means to an end."@en
""The life of Jesus Christ is depicted. Highlighted are the following events: his birth in a Bethlehem stable; the prophecies of John the Baptist and his murder; Jesus' 40-day ordeal in the desert; the selection of the Apostles; the Sermon on the Mount; Judas' betrayal of Jesus; the Passion; the Crucifixion; the Resurrection; and the Ascension"--AFI catalog, 1961-1970."
"Dramatization of the public ministry of Jesus Christ."
"Who is this Jesus and why does de have such great impact on everyone he meets? He is a heretic to some; a political threat to others; some even proclaim him a savior. He is respected and reviled, emulated and accused, beloved, betrayed and ultimately murdered on a cross. And that terrible fate would not be the end of the story."
"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. Vivid retelling of the world's greatest story, the saga of the Nazarene who would be King of Kings."@en
"This is the Biblical epic that Time misrepresented as "I am a Teenage Jesus". In fact, the film reduces the conventional pieties of a Hollywood 'life of Christ' to a minimum. The script concentrates on speculation about the political context of Christ's ministry - Jewish rebellion against the power of Rome - with Barabbas as an early Zionist. The film achieves a sense of historical movement - people placed in relation to wider forces to a degree unusual in the genre. Ray and the second unit that filmed some of the action scenes effectively deploy the widescreen both for the dramatically enclosed scenes and those on a larger scale."@en
