“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.

DVD is utter crap

DVD is utter crap,it's not genuine and it is a burnt copy with poor quality. I got burnt purchasing this. Buyer beware this shop is questionable

Unholy trinity

Three stars for the movie only. In spite of having leading actors, I was quite
disappointed with the overall movie. Good western movies are quite a
rarity nowadays.
As for the service, Mr. Brady has always delivered and is a pleasure to talk to.

A highly entertaining B-movie!

It may be considered a B-movie, but I found this film to be highly entertaining. The practical effects were great, and the performances by Ally Sheedy and Lance Henriksen were superb!
