This Italian production, first released in the U.S. in the late 80's is a great family film, first-off. Also, though it does not draw from biblical accounts so much as Gnostic Gospels, it still manages to show Jesus' humanity as well as give us glimpses of his destiny with visions the boy has at key moments. The movie is dubbed well and that does not detract from its beauty.

Very well done movie about the childhood of Jesus. We have been enjoying this movie for over 15 years.

I bought this movie for my mother-in-law after she told me she could not find it anywhere (she is not computer savvy). She called me very shortly after she received it and was so surprised (as was I because it only took about 4 days for her to get it after I ordered it). She told me she has watched it 4 times and loves it. Thanks Amazon for the great service.

I have loved this movie since I first saw it on TV! I am very happy to have my own copy now. The child was still a little boy but also has a special knowing quality about him. Its presented in a very believable way. Well worth watching.

We know very little about the childhood of Jesus; however, we do know somethings. This movie does not even follow the truths we do know about Jesus as a child. It actually is based on some heretical theories. I ended up throwing the movie out since it is so far from any truth. Susan

I thought this would be good for children to view, but will not show it as I believe there are a number of inaccurate pieces of information included and do not wish to instill untruth to the children in our church!

La película es excelente a pesar de estar basada en hecho no reales y apócrifos. Tanto la música como la fotografía ayudan a recrear cómo hubiese sido la infancia de Jesús. Lástima que no esté disponible la tercera parte de la serie titulada La Misión.

There was only one thing that I found to be wrong about the film was the editting. It should have been on 2 DVD's and not one. 3/4 thru the film they ran the Credits again ( Like the stars of the movie). It was very well made and the Actors were great. A really nice story. I am happy that I have it in my collection.

This dvd of a "Child Called Jesus" arrived in a resonabile amount of time and in good condition.

The video was in great condition and arrived by time stated. Thank you much. The grandchildren loved it too.nana
