Entertainment Reviews:
One of the best Biblical films, moving and trenchant.

Classic Film and Television
The best to be said for this chromo ... is that it drives one more spike into the coffin of these synthetic biblical films.

Rating: 1/4 --
Collins further undermines this travesty of the Bible, a late entry from director Raoul Walsh, by playing Esther without a shred of conviction.

Product Description:
After his wife is murdered, Persian King Ahasuerus (Richard Egan) chooses Esther (Joan Collins), a Jewish woman, to be his bride. But Esther faces a severe test when she and other Jews are required to renounce their faith. Based on the Old Testament, this epic recreates the tale which is the basis for Purim.
