Best film on the life of Christ...besides Jesus of Nazareth from 1977

So it seems that most people think that Zefferellis Jesus of nazareth is the best film on the life of Jesus. I would include myself in this though I wish it had contained more of his miracles but at 6+ hours I guess they would have had a hard time fitting more in lol. What other films do you folks enjoy based on the life of Christ. My favorites are The King of Kings a silent film from 1927 and The Greatest Story ever Told from 1965.

The Gospel of John was good. There was nothing extracurricular about it. Just the narrative acted out.

The min-series "Jesus of Nazareth" is mine; it has 382 min and gives more detail then most movie; also has a lot of famous actors in it; the trailer (scratch that--the full movie):

Oops; I guess that was the movie you were talking about; I was in a hurry and just popped it in.
