Attractive actors, realistic speech, The Words of David (on occasion) and good production values make this is an exceptional entertainment. If you know very little about David, this film helps bring his life into more into focus.
A flawed man who still found favor with God. I recommend this film for anyone interested in furthering their understanding of early Old Testament men/women.
I had forgotten David had so many "wives". I also found David's dancing in the front of the covenant very realistic. It was a dance of real joy in the film and not one of "madness" as some have suggested. I thought to myself watching this film....yes that makes more sense now.
The actor who played Absalom is quite good and his part of this David portrayal is riveting.
As a result of watching this film, I will seek out more of TNT's film series. Well Done!
