| Review | "An exhaustively-researched viewers guide to movies about Jesus. Barnes Tatum guides the reader film-by-film from Sidney Olcott's silent classic From the Manager to the Cross through Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ. With his experience as author, biblical scholar, and teacher on religion and film, he presents a unique look at Jesus films in all dimensions: as cinematic art, as literature, as biblical history and as theology."--BOOK JACKET. |
