It's always exciting to sit down and go back 120 years to look at something they made in the early years of cinema. It was all pretty fresh and they were making history, and thus you can see some signs of early film tricks implemented, but mostly how limited the moviemakers were at that time. Also, the timeframe they had at the time was not very long, but still, they manage to insert a good few elements of the Jesus story here. We get to see the Nativity, a topic that later got explored in its own movies, the escape to Egypt, a few miracles, the last supper, agony in Gethsemane, the crucifixion, and not least, a slight glimpse of a resurrection in the end. I felt like I was looking at the events from afar with binoculars, also historically speaking.
