For those looking for a definitive biography, The Bible is still the best source for The Greatest Story Ever Told. B A beautifully shot, epic picture that may or may not capture your understanding of the life and personality of Jesus Christ. Depictions of violence are sobering, but not gratuitous. King decrees death of infants. Guards with spears and drawn swords charge villagers.
Several scenes show dead bodies strewn on ground.
Mobsters yell protests. Soldiers rough handle prisoners. Men in chains. Many depictions of crucifixions. Slaves branded, whipped and beaten with fists.
