The King of Kings is the Greatest Story Ever Told as only Cecil B. DeMille could tell it. In 1927, working with one of the biggest budgets in Hollywood history, DeMille spun the life and Passion of Christ into a silent-era blockbuster. Featuring text drawn directly from the Bible, a cast of thousands, and the great showman’s singular cinematic bag of tricks, The King of Kings is at once spectacular and deeply reverent—part Gospel, part Technicolor epic.

Not the best silent bit still very goor. A straight telling of the Jesus story, it is slow for the first two hours but the last half an hour is spectacular and tugs the heart strings. Good visuals but not on a par with the likes or Murnau, Sjostrom, Dreyer etc. If you like silents, check it out. But it wouldn’t be in the top ten. 6.5/10

As biblical epics go, this is probably the best in my book. Cecil B. de Mille has crafted a masterpiece of silent cinema depicting the tale of the Christ from the beginnings of his journey until the resurrection. Using partly scripted and actual verses from the bible, the intertitles are expertly sp More
