After the Last Supper, Jesus knows Peter will deny Him and Judas will betray Him. In the night before his crucifixion, he wrestles with God's plan for Him in this rock ballad from Andrew Lloyd Webber. This dazzling interpretation of the hit Tim Rice - Andrew Lloyd Webber rock opera tells the story of Christ's (Ted Neeley) final weeks in a bold and epic production. Shot entirely on location in Israel, producer-director Norman Jewison creates a brilliant example of modern movie making with groundbreaking vision and the unforgettable songs of Rice and Webber. Nominated for several Golden Globe Awards including Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Actress. © 1973 Universal Pictures Corp., Inc. All Rights Reserved.
