A.D.

I don't know much about ancient Roman history, but I thought the A.D.

Anno Domini - Disc 1 out of 2The movie begins two days after the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth. The Romans are moving into the Middle East and the tension between the early Christians and Jewish Zealots increases.

I have both the 6 hour cut version of this remarkable masterpiece and the 10 hour uncut version. The Shorter version designed , perhaps for all ages, and well to be shown in a child's Sunday school class.

I have a 6hr version on DVD, I have seen it many many times.This film captures the true reality of what it means to be a Christian in the world at that time or our time right now.

A. D.

Recently I have been gathering any DVD's set in Ancient Rome and having seen so many recently I can truly say that this series is one of the best I have ever seen. Overall, I would only rank HBO's Rome higher.

Wonderful quality entertainers, James Mason, Anthony Andrews , AvaGardner , to name a few, in an exquisite historical drama about the early church, and her conflicts with the Roman Empire. Re ently bought a pirated copy for $10, and it plays we..

If there is any better way to enjoy a day I know it not! This mini-series won an Emmy for good reason!

I saw this mini series about the young Christianity in Rome, when I was a girl and never quite forgot about it. It reminded me in some ways of "The Robe" which is in that case a very high compliment.
