Dir: George Stevens US 1965 195mins 35mm

Packed with amazing set pieces, an uncredited David Lean also directed the prologue. Stars Charlton Heston, José Ferrer, Claude Rains, Angela Lansbury, Sidney Poitier, Martin Landau, Roddy McDowall, Donald Pleasence, Telly Savalas, John Wayne and Max Von Sydow as Jesus.
