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.
