Life and Passion of Jesus Christ

The Life and Passion of Jesus Christ (1905) is the earliest Jesus film that is widely available today (although the exact release date of the DVD version of this film is not entirely clear). The film is a million miles away from today's slick movie making, yet there's something very genuine about it's earnest depiction of it's subject. (Directors: Lucien Nonguet and Ferdinand Zecca) (Cast:Monsieur Normand...Jesus, Madame Moreau...Virgin Mary, Monsieur Moreau...Joseph, Monsieur Jacquinett...Judas, Le Petit Briand...Jesus as a Boy. Other actors unknown)
