A musical version of the Nativity Story offers a fresh take on a familiar story featuring an independent-minded Mary & a dark father-son view of Herod.
Jesus (1999)
Jesus combines scenes from the 4 gospels with fictional events to explain Jesus as a nonviolent leader out to set people free from sin, and not Roman rule.
The Passion of the Christ (2004)
The arrest, trial, flogging and crucifixion is shown in painfully bloody detail. Brief flashbacks to Christ’s earlier life set the context.
