FORTY NIGHTS, starring DJ Perry as Jesus, directed by Jesse Low, is the first part of the Quest Trilogy of films--the next films being CHASING THE STAR and THE CHRIST-SLAYER.
In this film, we see a side to Jesus of Nazareth that perhaps we've not quite seen before on the Big Screen as He faces the wilderness alone against the Tempter. Within that interaction comes many questions and considerations about the nature of mankind, the frailty, the evil, the good--as well as the Goodness of the Lord.
The film, though on a low budget, punches above its weight telling the story in a unique, thoughtful, quality way.
I really enjoyed the film and reflected on it long after watching it.
The acting in this film is good and notable.
I highly recommend FORTY NIGHTS!
