Trivia:
Composer Stephen Schwartz has a cameo in the prologue sequence: Katie serves him a cup of coffee as he is seated at the counter of the diner. moreGoofs:
Miscellaneous: The conceit that New York City is magically empty of people (other than Jesus and his disciples) is messed up only once - during the baptism scene on Bethesda Terrace, a man in the background of Central Park Lake can be seen frantically trying to row his boat out of the camera's view (he is visible in 3 separate shots). moreQuotes:
Pharisee Monster: What is the greatest Commandment of them all?Jesus: Thou shalt love the Lord, youe God, with all your heart and your soul." This is the greatest Commandment of them all. The second is like it: "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." All the rest of the Law and what the prophets have written is based on these first two.

Just watched the DVD of this and enjoyed hearing how well the music has held up over the years! You can't watch the movie without humming along to the songs!
My high school did this for the school play and it sure brought back a lot of memories!
I was real sorry to hear that Lynne had passed away....her solo was one of the standouts in my opinion....her talent (as well as the talent of the others who have passed) will be missed.
