Description: May 14, 2008 Love, loss, and battle at the time when Jesus of
Nazareth walked the earth! The Great Commandment is a powerful epic
Christian film from the late nineteen thirties. What distinguishes
this film from other Christian epics is that it deals much more
closely with the simple lives, hopes, and dreams of common zealots
who were persecuted by the Romans for following Christ. Strong
performances help to underscore the message of forgiveness and love
without being heavy handed. Unpredictable and clever, especially for
thirties’ filmmaking, The Great Commandment is a penetrating
story of romance and resistance against the Roman establishment and
the power of the Christ.
