English Summary:
Jesus is a 1999 American biblical historical drama television film that retells the historical events of Jesus Christ. It was shot in Morocco and Malta. It stars Jeremy Sisto as the titular character, Jacqueline Bisset as Mary of Nazareth, Debra Messing as Mary Magdalene and Gary Oldman as Pontius Pilate. The miniseries was broadcast in Italy in two parts on December 5 and 6, 1999[2] before being broadcast in the United States on May 14 and 15, 2000.
The film's chronology entails a cinematic blending of the Four Gospels with the addition of extra-biblical elements not found in the New Testament accounts. It provides a down to earth approach through its focus on the human aspect of Jesus. Compared to more solemn and divine portrayals in earlier films, Jesus expresses emotions weeping at Joseph's funeral, throwing stones in Lake Galilee upon meeting Simon Peter and James son of Zebedee, dancing at the wedding at Cana, and starting a water-splashing fight with his disciples.
Hungarian Summary:
A film 31 éves korától követi a Megváltó életét, bemutatva annak jelentősebb állomásait, melyekben vándorol az igét hirdetve, barátokra lel, csodákat művel és segítőtársak követik. A gáncsoskodókat a helyes útra tereli, és az igazak hisznek benne.
