From the Manger to the Cross Ratings & Reviews
Moving Picture World
Rev. W.H. Jackson
As this is the world's greatest theme, it only follows that this is the greatest picture, and the Kalem Company must receive due commendation for...this wonderful film which places the highest and best uses of the moving picture in its most exalted place.
Moving Picture World
W. Stephen Bush
It is indeed a cinematographic gospel. Because of this sublime work it will be easier than it was before to "go forth and teach all nations."
San Francisco Chronicle
SF Chronicle Staff
Throughout the five parts of the exhibition there is not the slightest effect of acting or straining for theatric effects. All is as simple as the great story of the Bible itself, yet remarkable in its realism.
Arizona Republic
Republic Staff
The present pictures that are running at the Lamara, From the Manger to the Cross are more wonderful in fact than [the Passion Play of Oberammergau].
Philadelphia Inquirer
Inquirer Staff
The picture, presented by the Kalem Company, is a wonderful delineation of the New Testament story of the Man of Galilee. Throughout the entire five thousand feet of film, divided into five reels, a deep study is given of human emotions.
Los Angeles Times
LA Times Staff
The various characters are well played and the sphinx, the pyramids, the rough ground, the crude houses and the garish magnificence of the finer costumes, easily carry one's mind back to the time of Jesus.
Baltimore Sun
Baltimore Sun Staff
Like the Passion play of Oberammergau, this moving pageant of the Savior's birth, life and death is wholly reverential in spirit and is doubly impressive in that the. scenes and atmosphere are historically correct.
