King of Kings (1961)

Although King of Kings deals with the same subject as the 1928 film of the same name, it is not intended to be a remake.  It thoroughly covers the events of Jesus' life from begining to end.  It also added a subplot about Barabbas being a Jewish freedom fighter, make him the 'Prince of War' and Jesus the 'Prince of Peace'.  Although it does explain why the Jews were so keen on releasing Barabbas, it doesn't help the movie much.  It's very long and I had to watch it in two sittings, also Jesus is pretty devoid of personality.
