The King of Kings
The King of Kings 18+Synopsis
The King of Kings is the Greatest Story Ever Told as only Cecil B. DeMille could tell it. In 1927, working with one of the biggest budgets in Hollywood history, DeMille spun the life and Passion of Christ into a silent-era blockbuster. Featuring text drawn directly from the Bible, a cast of thousands, and the great showman’s singular cinematic bag of tricks, The King of Kings is at once spectacular and deeply reverent—part Gospel, part Technicolor epic.

Mary Magdalene
[Speaking to herself]
I am LUST! Hold me fast, Mary--my arms are the gates of life! I am GREED! I drain hearts, but I fill thy purse--let Him not destroy me! Keep me, Mary--I am PRIDE! Through me thou hast enslaved Kings! We are GLUTTONY-INDOLENCE-ENVY-ANGER! We teach thee to forget, and to hate, and to consume!
