Easter extra:

"Give Us Barabbas!" (Hallmark Hall of Fame, 1961)

Barabbas, a career criminal and would-be anti-Roman rebel, is freed in place of Jesus by Pontius Pilate. After the crucifixion he is determined to learn the reason why.

Well-done version of the story, with a surprisingly full-blooded performance in the title role by James Daly, who usually played buttoned-down executive types. Broadway musical star Dennis King is very effective as Pilate.

Believers will get the most out of it, but even skeptics should find it worth watching as character study.
