TRIVIA



H.B. Warner, who played Jesus, was involved in a real life scandal with an anonymous woman who was determined to
blackmail Cecil B. DeMille by ruining the production. It is believed that DeMille paid the woman on the condition that
she leave the U.S.





Cecil B. DeMille did not want to take any chances with the film. His two stars, H.B. Warner and Dorothy Cumming, were
required to sign agreements which prohibited them from appearing in film roles that might compromise their
"holy" screen images for a five-year period. DeMille also ordered them not to be seen doing any
"un-Biblical" activities during the film's shooting. These activities included attending ball games, playing
cards, frequenting night clubs, swimming, and riding in convertibles.





This film features author Ayn Rand as one of the hundreds of people in a crowd. At a time when Rand was a struggling
immigrant, DeMille gave her the job to help get her on her feet.





This was the first film shown at Grauman's Chinese Theater on Hollywood Boulevard.





'Cecil B. Demille' intended that the role of the Jesus Christ go to J.B. Warner, a handsome and popular actor in
westerns at the time. By the time production began, J.B. Warner had passed away of tuberculosis at age 29. Instead, H.B.
Warner (Henry B. Warner) was cast as Jesus. Contrary to popular misconception, the two were not actually brothers.
According to an in-depth article on J.B. Warner in "Classic Images" by Grange B. McKinney, the two were not
even related. J.B.'s real name was James B. Tobias, and he adopted the surname of Warner after H.B. Warner's family took
him in and raised him. This error of familial appears in several reference books.





The Temple of Jerusalem set was constructed on the RKO backlot in Culver City. It was redressed as the "Great
Wall" set that the title character breaks through in King Kong (1933). It was later reused in David O. Selznick's
The Garden of Allah (1936) and finally went out in a blaze of glory after it was redressed with Civil War era building
fronts, burned and pulled down by a tractor to represent the burning of Atlanta munitions warehouses in Selznick's Gone
with the Wind (1939).

The Gospel According To Cecil, 27 December 2007





Author: b from Buffalo, New York 



Cecil B. DeMille's film about Jesus was made during a period in his career when he left Paramount and organized his own
studio. Unfortunately for DeMille his studio went belly up after the stock market crash of 1929. The King of Kings is
unquestionably the greatest film he made during that period.



But in DeMille's cinema gospel he eschewed the traditional Christmas story to be found in those four other gospels.
DeMille begins his movie with a real lavish party at the home of a noted women of the town Mary Magdalene played by
Jacqueline Logan. It's DeMille showing revelry at its best and most alluring. 



Logan asks why one of her favorites, Judas Iscariot hasn't been attending her clambakes recently. She hears he's been
hanging around with this carpenter from Nazareth reputed to have performed some miracles and who doesn't approve of her
lifestyle.



That's it for Ms. Magadalene; she's not about to let this hick take one of her favorites away. Off in a chariot pulled
by Zebras she goes after this carpenter. She finds H.B. Warner as Jesus doing one of the miracles and becomes a follower
herself. 



After this the film becomes a reverential straightforward account as you would find in the Bible. 



Reverence and revelry, the hallmark of a DeMille film is found in equal measure in The King of Kings. H.B. Warner does a
fine job in the lead role, he makes a saintly Jesus. I do wonder what led DeMille to cast Warner, to think of him in the
first place. Warner was 52 at the time playing a 30 something Jesus.



The King of Kings offers the movie fan to see father and son Rudolph and Joseph Schildkraut who play Caiaphas and Judas.
Both contribute fine performances to the endeavor. Unlike later gospel based films, this one clearly has Caiaphas as the
villain of the piece. He's described in the subtitles as a man concerned more with 'revenue than religion' which doesn't
make him all that different from some folks I could mention today. The Schildkrauts however were Jewish and stars in the
Yiddish Theater in Europe and America. They got good and slammed for their participation in The King of Kings by more
than a few of their co-religionists.



Sharp eyed viewers will also note that the guy playing Simon of Cyrene who helps Jesus with his cross is none other than
Hopalong Cassidy, William Boyd. Boyd was a DeMille discovery and had previously starred in another DeMille production,
The Volga Boatman. This of course was years before he became the idol of the nation's children.



In his autobiography DeMille goes into some detail about how Jeremiah Milbank helped him with the financing of the
DeMille Studio from which The King of Kings was produced. After the initial run, Milbank set up a foundation in which
prints of The King of Kings were copied and made available to various Christian mission groups free for their work. It's
one reason why this particular film is never in any danger of being lost.



DeMille was told on at least one occasion that this was his greatest picture because there is no greater subject. It's
arguably one of his best from a technical standpoint. Still for the hundreds of millions of affiliated Christians on the
planet, The King of Kings certainly occupies a special place.

The best Jesus movie ever!, 25 May 2000



Author: DA from Canberra, Australia





What a masterpiece! Visually stunning and deeply moving, even for the non-religious. DeMille was at his best in the
silent era, and I have never seen the story of Christ told so beautifully. With more than a passing nod to nineteenth
century Biblical painting, DeMille recreates the last days of Jesus' life in painstaking detail. He takes some liberty
with chronolgy, and there is his trademark combination of religious fervour and delicious decadence. But the passion and
sincerity are so strong that I'll be surprised if you don't shed a tear once or twice. And Joseph Schildkraut is
stunning as Judas.



Eye-popping sets and superb photography combine with huge crowds of extras and excellent costumes to create one of the
great epic films. And dig that opening orgy scene involving a scantily clad Mary Magdalene, a couple of old men, a
leopard and a hunky charioteer leading a team of zebra! Wow! The first shot of Jesus is also cinema magic, an
unforgettable moment. This film is superb.

Excellent silent movie, 16 April 2004



Author: WM from United States





Movie follows the story of Jesus Christ (H.B. Warner) starting with Mary Magdelene (Jacqueline Logan) and ending with
his resurrection. 



While not exactly accurate (Magdalene was Judas' lover?) to the Bible this is actually an excellent movie. It's very
reverent to the story and doesn't preach to the audience like other Biblical movies did. Some of the shots of Jesus were
stunning--he (literally) GLOWS. It's all done with lighting but it looks realistic. And since it's directed by Cecil B.
DeMille it's a spectacle--this movie is BIG! The sets are colossal, there's a cast of hundreds and a big huge
Crucifiction sequence that is quite impressive. There's also some nice special effects--surprising in a movie that's
over 70 years old. Also, it's well-cast. The standouts are Warner as Jesus; Logan making a very impressive Magdelene and
Joseph Schildkraut playing a very young and handsome Judas. Also his father Rudolph Schildkraut plays Caiaphas. And the
Resurrection sequence at the end is in two-color Technicolor. 



This is a much better than the 1961 remake. That one was badly cast (Jeffrey Hunter was way too young for the role), too
long (almost 3 hours) and dragged. This one is barely 2 hours and moves very quickly. 



A very impressive silent film--well worth catching.

Must see movie, 18 August 2005



Author: rickyotis from Pasadena, California





King of Kings is an extraordinary movie. I was so caught up in it if they had said in the credits 'Jesus as played by
himself' I would have believed it. The scenes of the little blind boy finding his way to Jesus, and the interaction
between Jesus and the little children stand out as the high points of the movie. There is a "healing" while
with the little children that stands out as one of the finest movie moments ever.



It is a silent movie, but if you get caught up like me, you will swear there was talking as you look back on it. 



I saw it in May of 1977 at the 50th anniversary of the Graumanns Chinese theater in Hollywood. It had opened 50 years
ago that night with its first movie being King of Kings. Interesting, the next night was the premier of the first Star
Wars movie.



Mr. DeMille's daughter or niece shared anecdotes about the filming after the movie. For example, there is a seen during
the last supper, where, after everyone gets up and walks away a dove comes and lands on the table by the holy grail and
gets lost in the lighting special effect. She informed us it was not planned.



She told us the movie played somewhere in the world every night for 46 years. And in South America, people would get on
their knees in the theaters after the performance.



Powerful movie and very moving.
