Editorial Review:
Product Description: The best-loved of the four Gospels, The Visual Bible: The Gospel of John, vividly comes to life in a faithful and powerful dramatization of the Biblical text. The Gospel of John meticulously re-recreates the era of Jesus during a tumultuous period that changed the course of history. Starring Henry Ian Cusick as Jesus, and narrated by Christopher Plummer, and with a cast of over 2500, The Gospel of John has been adapted for the screen, word-for-word, based on the American Bible Society's Good News Bible, by Emmy-nominated John Goldsmith and is directed by acclaimed British director, Philip Saville. Special features include: Historical Background * Production Design * About the Cast * About the Filmmakers * Academic Advisory Committee * Interactive Map of the Holy Land * Theatrical Trailer * Glossary * Historical Terms * Bibliography * Filmography * Dolby Digital Surround Sound * English, Spanish & French Subtitles. "The goal of The Visual Bible is to put the entire Bible on film using only Scripture to tell the story." Experience The Visual Bible's Matthew! This powerful and entertaining film is taken word-for-word from the text of the New International Version translation of the Bible. It's a multimillion dollar production that appeals to all ages, and offers outstanding educational, spiritual and entertainment value. Filmed on location, The Visual Bible: Matthew features a cast of thousands, historically accurate costuming and award-winning directing. The film stars the Emmy award winning actor Richard Kiley as Matthew, and introduces Bruce Marchiano as Jesus. (English & Spanish)
