St. John in Exile

The most unbelievable portrayal, and movement of the spirit, through this man, the earthly angels involved in bringing us this Heavenly Masterpiece, and Christ Jesus! a MUST SEE Oscar presentation!

Bless our brothers and our sisters, Father, and peace and understanding to those lost souls in search of understanding and believing. I ask you to bring us more of these portrayals, and help us each to spread them through the world, Father. In the name of our Christ Jesus, our Savior, we come to you and ask these things, our Heavenly Father, amen!

MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

I recently watched this film for the first time. I found it very well done. The acting, by Dean Jones, was very impressive. I felt the scene where he portrayed the crucifixion was the best I had ever seen. It brought home to me just how much Jesus did for me when He died on the cross. I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants to know the greatness of Jesus. Jones portrays St. John as a real person. He does a marvelous job changing voices as he speaks of the different people. His humour adds to the character a great deal. The lighting and music was also well done. I would recommend this movie to everyone, even those who do not choose to believe in Jesus.

What a portrayal! WOW! I held my breath at times watching this! No words. Hit me deep!

This Movie is amazing. It is a one man show (play) about the apostle John while he was exiled on the island of Patmos. Dean Jones is superb as John. It is set as if you the audience has come to the island to see him. He tells his Gospel of Jesus and shares revelation. This is an accurate presentation of the Gospel of John. This film also makes a great witnessing tool. You feel like you are actually there with him walking with Jesus. You must see this film you will not be disapointed.

This is an outstanding production. For those who only know Dean Jones from the Disney pictures (The Love Bug, Shaggy D.A., etc.) and such, here is a role for the actor that provides an opportunity for him to reveal both his tremendous dramatic talent and his deep Christian faith. Although some may say it is a little slow moving (perhaps because it is a recording of a stage performance at Jack Hayford's Church on the Way), the story is excellently written and has real depth. The production makes good use of various camera angles as well as creative lighting to add drama to the presentation. You find yourself quickly drawn into the story as Jones powerfully brings St. John to life, recounting, from his cell on the isle of Patmos, his journey with Jesus and the other disciples. A real tour de force performance by Jones (in the tradition of such one-man shows as Hal Holbrook's Mark Twain or James Whitmore's Harry Truman) makes this a DVD worth watching by anyone who appreciates a magnificent performance from an incredible actor and one that should definitely be in every Christian's collection.
