Product Description This powerful, epic film vividly portrays the last 48 hours of the life of Jesus Christ and challenges commonly held assumptions about him. With moving performances from Jean-Claude LaMarre (Malcolm X) and Debbi Morgan (Woman Thou Art Loosed), this stirring film is a triumph! The first depiction of Jesus as a black man, Color Of The Cross is also the first to suggest that the Crucifixion could have been racially motivated. A compelling script and astounding interpretations of the Bible make this daring masterpiece an achievement not to be missed. With its inspiring, unconventional approach to an emotionally volatile issue, Color of the Cross presents a fresh perspective on the history of Christianity and delivers as moving a portrait of his life as has ever been put to film! Amazon.com Color of the Cross proffers an interesting idea: Jesus Christ was a man of color, and race played a significant part in the events that led to his crucifixion and the Biblical aftermath. Co-writer, director and star Jean-Claude La Marre plays Jesus in this Christian re-telling of the final hours and days of the Messiah, but his spin is certainly unique. La Marre's Christ is an object of worry and derision by Romans and Pharisees, both because the Judean population so fervently hopes for its emancipator, and because he might be a "dark-skinned Nazarene." This provocative element keeps Color of the Cross fairly interesting despite its low budget and La Marre's curious portrayal of Jesus as frequently petulant, a Messiah one can never please. There are some strong performances, including Jean-Pierre Parent as Thomas and Johann John Jean as Judas. --Tom Keogh
