One friend of mine at the screening expressed his concern that this film in portraying Jesus' death at the hands of the Jewish establishment might make it vulnerable to accusations of Antisemitism. The music by Jeff Danna is wonderful-well beyond what I could have hoped for. I hope we see a great deal more of this fine actor. I spoke very briefly with Cusick after the screening, thanking him for his portrayal of a part that is loaded with hazards-all of which he avoided. Cusick, convincingly portrays Jesus the carpenter as a handsome, masculine, very charismatic man. This Jesus did not refer to them for his authority. (What part could one give to an actor who previously portrayed a drug dealer?) Jesus is brilliantly portrayed by Henry Ian Cusick as Jesus the man with human emotions, Jesus the visionary resented by the religious establishment of his day. Most of the other actors were not known to me-which I felt helped. His delivery re-enforces the clarity of what is on the screen. The dialogue is solely based on the Good News Bible (also known as Today's English Version) Christopher Plummer very ably supplies the verse by verse narration from the same source. Jesus' words are not here presented as pious platitudes, but occur within a context where Jesus responded to those around him. Many stories with which the viewer is familiar, such as the nativity, are missing from John's gospel and therefore also from this wonderfully complex and yet lucid screenplay. Goldsmith's screenplay is based on only one man's perspective, that of Jesus' disciple John. This film is based on John Goldsmith's screenplay which deftly avoids all the laughably silly cliches of previous film versions. The authors of those screenplays in merely sampling from several sources, lost the unique focus of each respective author and diluted the overall effect of the story. Also, they needlessly added scenes not found in the original sources.

Many previous films have sampled more than one of the Biblical narratives on the life of Christ. The Bible's presentation of the story of Jesus is based primarily on four narratives-each stamped with its author's own personality and unique perspective.

Amazingly, it avoided all of the mistakes made in most other attempts to tell this story. This film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival.
