The Gospel of John is a 2003 movie directed by
Philip Saville and narrated by
Christopher Plummer. We have a DVD set that has the film itself divided between two DVDs with special features on a third. The film has a dedicated web site
here. [link broken as of 2/17/2010] I tired of Jesus' unrelenting
cheerfulness. I also tired of the visual flashbacks during Jesus' extended monologues. For me, they were distracting.

I purchased this when it first came out -- I found it useful on occasion. I've never used the entire film, but used clips of it to contrast with clips of other "Jesus films."
ReplyDeleteI love Brad Sherrill's interpretation of The Gospel of John that he does as a one man show. Very moving.
