The Book of Clarence Review

‘The Book of Clarence’ is an epic and bold retelling of the biblical story. Director Jeymes Samuel's revisionist story of Jesus is both epic and entertaining, but will no doubt be controversial to bible fundamentalists.

Coming off the success of the fantastic ‘The Harder They Fall,’ director Jeymes Samuel's has crafted another epic and entertaining movie, which boasts commanding performances from LaKeith Stanfield and Anna Diop. While the film will no doubt spark controversy in the fundamental bible community for its depiction of the “historical Jesus” versus the “real Jesus,” the filmmaker’s original vision and execution is hypnotic for those religiously openminded and results in a fun and though-provoking theatrical experience.
