From what little I've seen, it's a pretty interesting production, with some great musical numbers and wild special effects.
If you need convincing about the propaganda value of film, supposedly seven million people in India have converted to Christianity after viewing Dayasagar (Ocean of Mercy) - the producers having screened the movie on bed sheets in remote villages all over the country!
"At the end of 1906, Zecca, assisted by the Spaniard Segundo de Chomón's photography and special effects, started filming in colour a second Vie et Passion de N.S. Jésus Christ, in four parts and 38 scenes, 990 metres long, which he finished in 1907."
Well...We used to call this film "La pasion en colores" and that phrase was also an euphemism for a tragedy, something boring or a mess. I saw old Spanish women watching this film on their knees!!! Life is sweet.
Very pleased to be of service!
