Christus
About Christus
Giulio Antamoro's Christus tells the life of Jesus in three Mysteries. The first is the birth, the Magi, Herod's killing of the children, and the flight into Egypt. The second is the merchants driven from the Temple, Mary Magdalene's conversion, and the entry into Jerusalem. The third is split into the Passion, the death, and the Resurrection. Alberto Pasquali plays Jesus. Leda Gys plays the Madonna. Amleto Novelli plays Pilate. Augusto Mastripietri plays Judas.
