Life and Passion of Christ 1903 DVD Power of The Resurrection 1950s Biblical

Description

DVD comes Brand new sealed in a plastic case.

The film is composed of brief, pageant-like vignettes, each introduced by a simple title card such as “The Annunciation” or “The Ascension.” At this early stage, the new cinematic art had yet to learn its unique strengths relative to the “legitimate theater,” and so the staging of each tableau, the theatrical props and painted backdrops, and the exaggerated acting style, all typical of the era, are more evocative of a stage presentation than what came to be expected from a film only a few years later. Also included is a Television film from the 1950’s “The Power of The Resurrection”.
