. It is the story of Esther and Xerxes. The last time I tried to watch it was with a group of youth who were not interested in the movie whatsoever, and it was a disaster. I finally had the opportunity to view it without interruption (except the occasional barking by my dog). It was a pretty good movie. The sets and costumes were incredible. Some of the acting was a bit cheesy or unskilled or something (Xerxes had a really strange accent that annoyed me), but the movie was a good movie in spite of that. It was just nice to watch a movie that had violence and a love story without blood and skin. Definitely entertaining and something that won't make you blush when watching as a family. I hope to add it to my expanding DVD collection at some point in the future (although I have to admit that I spend so much less on DVDs now that I have replaced TV with books for the most part).

One Night with the King
My most recent Netflix movie was One Night With the King. It is the story of Esther and Xerxes. The last time I tried to watch it was with a group of youth who were not interested in the movie whatsoever, and it was a disaster. I finally had the opportunity to view it without interruption (except the occasional barking by my dog). It was a pretty good movie. The sets and costumes were incredible. Some of the acting was a bit cheesy or unskilled or something (Xerxes had a really strange accent that annoyed me), but the movie was a good movie in spite of that.
