“My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken Me?” It is towards this climactic crossroads that the story of Jesus of Nazareth leads, and to which, at the final moment, it again looks back in triumphant retrospect. It is the anguishing crossroads where the eternal questions of faith and doubt become resolved.

Breathtakingly gorgeous, sensitive, powerful film.

The Greatest Story Ever Told, I first saw this film when it was first released — in the cinema and on a large screen with brilliant color and rich deep stereo sound. It was breathtaking! George Stevens Jr. did an absolutely magnificent job in crafting this outstandingly beautiful, sensitive, and powerful motion picture. This was not just a deeply moving re-telling of the story of Jesus (albeit with a touch of a pro-legend approach). More than that, in its visual sweep, insightful acting of the lead characters (especially of Max Von Sydow as Jesus), and resplendent musical track, this film conveyed a true sense of majesty — a marked rarity in most film these days. I must concur with one of the other online reviewers here, on a related point: I too believe that it was a shame, and an error on the part of Stevens, that various key characters were portrayed all-too-noticeably by some major film/entertainment stars who just seemed to be bizarrely out-of-place in their roles — such as John Wayne as the Roman Centurion who, never before seen in the film until this moment, looks up at Jesus on the Cross and says “Truly, this man was the son of God!” (I almost expected Wayne to tag his line with the word “Pilgrim”); or such as singer Pat Boone, who jarringly appears in the role of a cloaked man who, sitting in Jesus’ vacated tomb, says to a searching Roman, “Why seek Ye the living among the dead?” (Here too, I think that I was not the only one who half-expected Boone to leap to his feet and break out into singing one of his big hits such as “Bernardine” or “Love Letters In The Sand”). But those discontinuities aside, I would still say that “The Greatest Story Ever Told” is an outstanding film that merits very high marks. If you can see it, see it — especially on a big screen, if possible, and with a good sound-system.

Item received was not as described

Item received was not 'starring Helen Hayes' despite her picture being on the DVD, it was actually the version with Joan Hickson. I raised a complaint one week ago but still heard nothing in reply. Very poor customer service.

Fantastic, thank you so much

i purchased this from you several months ago

i purchased this from you several months ago. Unfortunately I never saved it . i owned the dvd that i purchased about 20 years ago.and when my computer crashed lost it a second time. Anyone who buys a movie three times likes it. What you sold me is near DVD quality. Your competition sells it for three times what you charged because once again it's out of print. To boot when the charge three times the price the qualitty is poor. I OWN 10,000videos that took 40 years to acquire making purchases all over the world. I say this to emphasize that you are the only quality shop doing what you do so customers can have confidence when they buy from you. The only problem dealing with you is your supply is limited otherwise I would be our best customer. For the record this is a fact based story with fictionalized characters.

A cooler climate

I have used the Rare & Collectables for a few year and find no problem with them. I mainly go for downloads instead of buying the movie.
