The first movie I remember watching as a child was Ben Hur. I watched it with my mother. It was the 1959 version of the film. While the movie is not specifically about Jesus, it tells the story of a Jew living in Judaea facing the rivalry of a childhood friend. Through his eyes we see Jesus. We meet Jesus in his humanity. Charlton Heston stars in t...

Mar 14, 2018 · SYNOPSIS. In 2016, there have been no fewer than four Hollywood movies about Jesus: Risen, The Young Messiah, Last Days in the Desert, and Ben-Hur.
