This is a Movie About the Life & Times of Jesus Christ, As Told & Sung by the Late/Great Johnny Cash!!!!!June 6, 2010 Gary Covington(Louisiana) According to the research, I've done, through watching, the DVD "The Gospel Music of Johnny Cash", and the book "Cash, An American Man" (p.104), Johnny Cash was not satisfied with the movies, he had seen, about the life, times, death & resurrection of Jesus Christ. So, him and June, along with friends, went to Isreal to make this movie. John & June's friends and native Israels, made up the cast. June portrayed Mary Magdaline. John & June spent $500,000 of their own money up-front to make this movie. It later became a movie by 20th Century Fox.
This movie was filmed during 1971.
In the movie, Johnny narrates, and sings the story, that is being portrayed. This is not amateurist at all. It is very professional. I've never seen the story of Jesus Christ told this way. It made me feel good, like I had been to Church. Like Charlie Daniels stated in the notes to one of his gospel ablums, "many people do not understand the simplicity of Salvation Through Jesus Christ", so Charlie wrote some songs, that would help those people.
Anyway, this is an excellent movie about the story of my Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ. It is told in a very, unique, and real way. It is totally based on the Bible. I agree with what Johnny stated, before he make this movie, he had never seen a movie protraying the story of Jesus Christ the way he believed it should be protrayed. Well, Johnny & June sure made a great movie, about the story of Jesus Christ. It's just very pleasant to watch, it's simple, very well protrayed, and is very "touching".
The DVD has 24 scene selections.
Thanks, and may God Bless!!!!
The Gospel RoadOctober 21, 2009 Jacques Beaudin(Helena, Mt. USA) A different take about the Life of Christ who seems to enjoy his friends and life. The music of Cash made this worth while to watch and listen to. Ok for the children to watch and great discussion tape.

Gospel Road reviewSeptember 14, 2009 Darren East(Australia) The movie was as I remembered it, and the video quality was what one would expect, having been originally a VHS tape.
My only gripe is that the movie is not available in PAL format, forcing me to dig out my spare portable DVD player I bought in America.
Apparently the distributors don't believe that any Christians exist outside of the good 'ol U.S of A.
GREAT WAY TO DO BUSINESSMay 11, 2009 Helen Wilson THIS DVD WAS SHIPPED IN SUCH A TIMELY MANNER AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. I ORDERED IT IMMEDIATELY AFTER VIEWING IT AT CHURCH ON A TUES EVE AND IT GOT TO ME BY THE WEEKEND OF EASTER SO THAT OUR FAMILY COULD VIEW IT TOGETHER ON EASTER SUNDAY. THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WITH OTHER SELLERS THAT I HAVE HAD TO WAIT 2 WEEKS. I WOULD DEFINATELY SEEK OUT THIS SELLER AGAIN. HELEN
