Ten Wanted Men

The Greatest Story Ever Told
»rank: 29255
0ur opinion: :The life of Christ got an excessively long treatment (26O minutes, later trimmed to 195) in this 1965 film directed by George Stevens (The Diary of Anne Frank). Max von Sydow does beautiful work as Jesus--his spontaneous mourning at discovering his friend Lazarus has died is not like anything in other New Testament epics--and Stevens renders the familiar tale with a handsome authenticity. But the project is nearly undone by an unwise gimmick in which seemingly half of Hollywood's living stars at the time make ...

The Eyes of Tammy Faye
»rank: 49394
0ur opinion: :Tammy Faye Bakker, she of the layers of makeup that made her face into a living Halloween mask, will forever remain a camp icon of '8Os culture for many of us. Directors Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato aren't above needling Bakker for her more excessive accouterments, but The Eyes of Tammy Faye is ultimately a loving, sympathetic portrait of 'the first lady of televangelism.' The film charts her life from traveling evangelist to the mother of three religious cable networks, and her fall from grace ...
