Product Description

As a dedicated follower of Christ, Peter spreads the message of the Christians across the land, often staying only one step ahead of those determined to persecute him. As the tension between the Christians and the Romans grows, blood runs in the streets and the apostles lose St. Paul to crucifixion. On the road to Damascus Peter comes face-to-face with a stranger who shows him the only way - he must put himself on the cross in order to bring peace to Rome.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful Movie Depicting Peter, Paul, the Apostles and Jesus Christ Relationship to Them , February 6, 2007

By	Jacqueline (Manhattan Beach, California) - See all my reviews

Excellent Movie, this movie taught me so much about the Apostles Peter, Paul and how they came to KNOW that Jesus Christ was son of God and the relationship Christ had with them. I cried, Omar Sharif was a perfect Peter, as his eyes express so much of the feelings that were experienced when he denied Christ (3) times and also told him he loved him (3) times. The pace of the movie is excellent, the acting superb, and most of all the historical representation (especially the Romans and the Christians),in this cinematic film captures the essence of Christ, and how those closest to him came to KNOW he was son of God and how the Holy Spirit touched those Christians after his resurecction. I would highly recommend this film!

5.0 out of 5 stars beautiful story, April 15, 2007

By	Lizzeedee "Skin Care Store Owner" (LA, CA) - See all my reviews

This is my favorite biblical movie! Omar Sharif was perfect with the cast. I first saw it in Italian in Rai TV and was the first to get it on DVD with Portugese subtitles. This is my second purchase as I loaned my lst one to a priest who shares it with the children of his school and I just couldn't ask for it back. One of my favorite many scenes is Paul's conversion on the road to Damascus and of course Peter crying in Jesus' arms for denying him three times. There are so many but I'll just say get it share it and enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars St. Peter, March 20, 2007

By	Gary L. Williams "Gary Williams" (Newton, NC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have seen many movies about the Apostle Paul. This movie is the most accurate about Peter that I've ever seen. As my wife ans I watched it, we both said that this movie truly follows the New Testament about Peter's life. I reccomend this movie wholeheartedly. It would be a great movie for church congregations to watch together. Gary
