Jesus of Nazareth | comment |
Jesus of Nazareth is an Anglo-Italian mini-series made in 1977 about the life of Jesus. Co-written and directed by Franco Zeffirelli and produced by Sir Lew Grade, it stars Robert Powell in the titular role and has an exceptionally strong supporting cast making up the rest of 1st-century Judea. Zeffirelli made the project after he was asked directly by Pope Paul VI to make a film about the life of Jesus from his birth to the crucifixion and all the way to his resurrection. In order to make a more accurate film, various religious authorities were consulted besides the Vatican, including the Leo Baeck Rabbinical College in London and the Koranic School in Meknes, Morocco.Jesus of Nazareth is shown on television in several countries around the world at least once every year. | |

Canon Foreigner: Ian Holm's Zerah does not feature in any of the Gospels but instead was made up for the series in order to give Judas motivation to betray Jesus. | |

Jesus of Nazareth / int_1ba17583 | comment |
The Ghost: Tiberius Caesar, who is mentioned many times throughout the mini-series, but is not actually seen. God Himself, as well as his various angels. The words they speak in the Gospels are conveyed by the characters, but their presence is only indicated by lighting and changes in the music cues. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
Jesus of Nazareth / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: The miniseries expands upon the Zealots, the main anti-Roman La Résistance organization of 1st-century Judea. One major subplot has them trying to co-opt John the Baptist (and later Jesus) to their cause and incite Jews to declare open revolt. Simon and Judas are both members who infiltrate Jesus's inner circle for that purpose, though the former fully commits. Barabbas is also an active member who interacted with Jesus a few times. The subplot culminates in a failed assassination attempt on Herod Antipas, for which Amos, leader of Simon and Judas's cell, and several of his comrades were immediately executed. | |

Pietà Plagiarism | |
Jesus of Nazareth / int_3a4522df | comment |
Pietà Plagiarism: Rubbing off the "plagiarism" part of the trope, as it is meant to show the real thing: Mary holding the dead Jesus in her arms post Crucifixion. Averted, however, in that this depiction avoids the usual serene and pensive scene, instead depicting a hysterically shrieking and sobbing Mary throwing herself onto Jesus' body in the midst of a violent rainstorm. | |

Occult Blue Eyes | |
Jesus of Nazareth / int_41ec06f | comment |
Occult Blue Eyes: Perhaps the most notable thing about Powell's Jesus are his extremely clear blue eyes. He also barely blinks. He does blink once, and it's a "look away and you'll miss it" type thing. This technique was deliberate on the part of the director; he wanted to add an air of divinity to the character by calling attention to the actor's gorgeous eyes. | |

Rule of Symbolism: The "Five breads and two fishes" scene. Note that Mary Magdalene is one of the many receiving from the bread basket. When she visibly breaks down crying after her first bite, we know this is not ordinary bread, but serves as a foreshadowing to the last supper. Mary visibly changes clothes after this incident as well. | |

Jesus of Nazareth / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: Both Pilate & Quintilius are reluctant to sentence Jesus to death, given he has not broken any Roman rules. Pilate even gives the crowd the choice between having either Jesus or Barabbas released. Caiaphas too, at the hearing before the Sanhedrin, is explicit that his intention is to understand Jesus's mission, rather than to treat him like a criminal. Averted in the case of Zerah: when he first meets Jesus, he appears to meet this, but then turns out to be the main villain. | |

Always with You | |
Jesus of Nazareth / int_dcd13ea5 | comment |
Always with You: Jesus directly responds to Peter's Please, Don't Leave Me speech, assuring him that he will always be there for him and the rest of his fellow disciples until the end of time. | |

Composite Character | |
Jesus of Nazareth / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: Both Roman centurions who appear in the Gospels (the one with the ill servant and the one who stands at the foot of the cross) are made into the same character. Mary Magdalene is equated with the unnamed sinful woman (who anoints Jesus with perfume, washes his feet with her tears and dries it with her hair) as seen in Catholic tradition. | |

Jesus of Nazareth / int_e8e3807 | comment |
Aside Glance: Doubles with Leaning on the Fourth Wall, when Joseph and Mary exchange marital oaths early in the movie. One of the witnesses looks straight into the camera at one point with the following words (while showing a broad smile): | |

Facepalm | |
Jesus of Nazareth / int_f945dff4 | comment |
Facepalm: Even here. Judas does a double one when Jesus insults pretty much the entire Sanhedrin with his "The Reason You Suck" Speech in part two. And then there is Pontius Pilate, who seems to facepalm quite a lot when he rubs his forehead, pondering how to ever govern such people. | |

Jesus of Nazareth / int_fd4f8299 | comment |
Well-Intentioned Extremist: Judas's portrayal in the miniseries — he sincerely believes that Jesus will lead an open revolt against the Romans (unlike Simon, a fellow Zealot-turned-disciple, who believes Jesus meant something else) and only betrays him to the Sanhedrin to force him to explain himself. It doesn't go well. | |
