By request and edited for YouTube: The Trial Before Pilate including the Thirty Nine Lashes Lyrics: PILATE And so the king is once again my guest. And why is this? Was Herod unimpressed? CAIAPHAS We turn to Rome to sentence Nazareth. We have no law to put a man to death. We need him crucified. It's all you have to do. We need him crucified. It's all you have to do. PILATE Talk to me Jesus Christ. You have been brought here Manacled, beaten by your own people. Do you have the first idea why you deserve it? Listen King of the Jews, Where is your kingdom? Look at me. Am I a Jew? JESUS I have no kingdom in this world. I'm through. There may be a kingdom for me somewhere. If you only knew. PILATE Then you are a king? JESUS It's you that say I am. I look for truth and find that I get damned. PILATE But what is truth? Is truth a changing law? We both have truths. Are mine the same as yours? MOB Crucify him! Crucify him! PILATE What do you mean? You'd crucify your king? MOB We have no king but Caesar! PILATE He's done no wrong. No, not the slightest thing. MOB We have no king but Caesar! Crucify him! PILATE What is this new respect for Caesar? 'Till now this has been noticeably lacking. Who is this Jesus? Why is he different? You Jews produce Messiahs by the sackfull. MOB We need him crucified, It's all you have to do. We need him crucified, It's all you have to do. PILATE Talk to me, Jesus Christ. Look at your Jesus Christ. I'll agree he's mad. Ought to be locked up, But that is not a reason to destroy him. He's a sad little man. Not a King or God. Not a thief, I need a crime! MOB Crucify him! PILATE Behold a man, Behold your shattered King. MOB We have no King but Caesar. PILATE You hypocrites, You hate us more than him. MOB We have no King but Caesar, Crucify him! PILATE I see no reason. I find no evil. This man is harmless, so why does he upset you? He's just misguided, thinks he's important, But to keep you vultures happy I shall flog him. MOB Crucify him! Crucify him! (Thirty-nine lashes, Pilate counts) PILATE Where are you from Jesus? What do you want Jesus? Tell me. You've got to be careful. You could be dead soon, Could well be. Why do you not speak when I hold your life in my hands? How can you stay quiet? I don't believe you understand. JESUS You have nothing in your hands. Any power you have, comes to you from far beyond. Everything is fixed, and you can't change it. PILATE You're a fool Jesus Christ. How can I help you? MOB Pilate, Crucify him! Remember Caesar. You have a duty To keep the peace, so crucify him! Remember Caesar. You'll be demoted. You'll be deported. Crucify him! Remember Caesar. You have a duty To keep the peace, so crucify him! Remember Caesar. You'll be demoted. You'll be deported. Crucify him! Remember Caesar. You have a duty To keep the peace, so crucify him! Remember Caesar. You'll be demoted. You'll be deported. Crucify him! PILATE Don't let me stop your great self-destruction. Die if you want to, you misguided martyr. I wash my hands of your demolition. Die if you want to you innocent puppet!

The scene where you see Jesus' blood on Pilate's hands, was totally over the top!

This is the best scene of the best show ALW ever did. I really hate him and his thieving from everyone from Puccini to the folks song "schooldays", but this is great. It's powerful, shows the sincere questioning of Pilate(who represents all questioners through history) and the mob psychology(which also has not changed through history) This is superb theater, though intensely blasphemous... Judas was NOT Good...Even in this portrayal, He's not Good, but is shown as a catalyst(which he was.)

no it wasn't.. what the director did with the 2000 version was have it a little closer to the stageshow, reason for all the facial's of the actors, not like this one.. I find both a good watch

Didnt think guns existed bak in his time haha

The guns are used because of what was going on while they were making the musical, the war. They are a sign of power and they are also making a statement about the war by using the guns.

I absolutely love how the movie chose to portray both Judas and Pilate as good men who were merely part of the bigger plot to destroy Jesus. As Jesus said, "Everything is fixed". Pilate wants to help, and Judas is only looking out for the best for the nation, but both of them end up helping to kill Christ. And a lot of people hate Judas and Pilate today for that. I love that portrayal. I find it really deep and I like to think of it that way.

The lady who portrayed Mary Magdalene is Yvonne Elliman. SHe became somewhat of a disco singer in the late seventies. She sang, "If I can't have you", "Love Me", etc. Really good voice
