The Book of Acts comes alive in this epic covering the years 30-69 A.D. Filmed on location in the Middle East and Europe, A.D. vividly depicts the rising confrontation between the mighty Roman Empire, Jewis zealots, and early Christians. Painstakingly researched by award-winning producer Vincenzo Labella, this compelling mini-series blends Biblical narrative with historic incidents and engaging fictional characters. Rejoice with Christ's disciples at Pentecost, and cry with them at the stoning of Stephen. Watch the Church grow - Saul is dramatically converted, Peter performs wonders, and Philip baptizes the Ethiopian. Witness the barbarous treatment of Christians at the hands of Roman leaders, and finally, marvel at the great triumph of the Church, despite persecution and the martyrdom of Peter and Paul. 6 hours on 2 DVDs Reader Reviews I remember enjoying this movie when it first appeared on television. I eagerly awaited my DVD copy. When I got the movie, it seemed very incomplete. After further research on the web, I found out that it was indeed incomplete. The production company removed about 3 to 4 hours from the original broadcast! They movie is still viewable, but some of the edits are a little unsettling.
