Since the earliest days of the movies more than a century ago, moviemakers have been intrigued by “the greatest story ever told.” They have tried, with varying degrees of success, to capture the life of Jesus on film. In Jesus at the Movies Barnes Tatum has created a fascinating and exhaustively-researched viewer’s guide to the movies about Jesus. Tatum guides the reader film-by-film from Sidney Olcott’s silent classic “From the Manger to the Cross” through Denis Arcand’s award-winning “Jesus of Montreal” to the future of Jesus movies. With his experience as author, biblical scholar, and teacher on religion and film, he presents this unique look at Jesus films in all dimensions: as cinematic art, as literature, as biblical history and as theology.
