Question

I purchased another DVD recently called "Barrabas", starring Anthony Quinn as Barrabas. Has anybody seen that one? I thought it was pretty good.

Answer 1

Yes I have. It was a good film.

If you want an interesting contrast, considering who Barabbas was, you might check out a film called
Shoes of the Fisherman. Quinn plays the Pope in that film.

Answer 2

It was a great film. In a great sense, we are all Barabbas.
Jesus died in our place. Had Christ not been crucified on the cross that was meant for Barabbas, He would not have paid the sin debt, and we would have to. Praise God, He took the place of Barabbas and each of us.
