St. John in Exile

Explore the events from Jesus Christ's life that changed the course of history, as seen through the eyes of his most loyal apostle in St. John in Exile. This one-man stage show chronicles the imprisonment of John (Dean Jones), the last living disciple of Jesus' twelve. Locked away in a cave prison on the isle of Patmos, John remains full of humor and resolute in his faith in Jesus and God.

Discover the story of Jesus in a completely new way from Emmy award-winning director Dan Curtis (War and Remembrance), and watch Jones give a startling personal account of John's story. DVD special features include interviews, biographies, film clips, and photo galleries. A triumph in acting, this former stage play will make you marvel at the awesomeness of the material and recall other great performances in film history.

Dove Worldview:

Dean Jones uses a gruff voice in his portrayal of the elderly John the Apostle, and there is not a false note in his entire performance. It is an insightful and poignant presentation. His sincerity is beyond question. The play is scripturally sound, and Pastor Jack Hayford of Church on the Way suggests this as well in a bonus feature which includes both himself and Dean Jones. Jones manages to keep the audience's attention as well as the viewer of the DVD for ninety two minutes in performing this well-crafted role as St. John. Those who wonder about enjoying a one-man show need not fear. For those who mistakenly think that Dean Jones' talent is limited to The Love Bug, this performance will quickly change their minds. The character of St. John not only speaks of his experience on the Isle of Patmos, but of his experiences in following Christ during the time of the gospels.This is well worth viewing and we gladly award this program our Dove "Family-Approved" Seal for the entire family.
