Editorial Reviews

Adapted by Christopher Fry from the novel by Pag Langerkvist, Barabbas is a literate, well-mounted Biblical epic. Anthony Quinn stars as Barabbas, the thief who was pardoned in place of Jesus. For the rest of his life, the guilt-ridden criminal tries to justify his existence and to determine his place in the scheme of things. The film has its share of spectacular sequences-notably the burning of Rome-but what sticks in the mind are such personality-oriented vignettes as the stoning of Sara (Katy Jurado), the gladiatorial sadism of Torvald (Jack Palance), the self-righteous pomposity of Pontius Pilate (Arthur Kennedy), and the ultimate self-sacrifical demise of Barabbas himself. The film's unbilled Christ is played by Roy Magnano, the brother of Quinn's second-billed costar Silvia Mangano. Watch for the genuine solar eclipse during the Crucifixion sequence (an effect that director Richard Fleischer spent several days preparing for). Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

February 16, 2009: I enjoyed this film, fantastic, and so much passion with all the actors and great effects. This is a must for anyone to watch over the age of 13 years. I would definately recommend this movie, it is very inspirational for believers in Christ.
