The Greatest Story Ever Told DVD and Blu-Ray Limited Collector's Edition Mediabook (+ Bonus Blu-Ray)

The magnificent and five-time Oscar®-nominated monumental epic from legendary filmmaker George Stevens (“Giant”, “The Diary of Anne Frank”) is considered the most elaborate Biblical film of all time and has a top-class cast, right down to the supporting roles. At the time of Rome’s rule over Judea, Jesus (Max von Sydow) is born in a stable in Bethlehem. As a grown man, he preaches about his father’s kingdom, gathers twelve disciples around him, performs miracles and is revered by the people as the long-awaited Messiah. Fearing for their position of power, the celebrated saviour is a thorn in the side of the Roman rulers and the Jewish priesthood: they have Jesus persecuted, arrested and sentenced to death on the cross. With his subsequent resurrection and ascension, he proves to humanity his identity as the Son of God.
