When did you first get to see it?

I got to see the stage production in Denver and then almost immediately afterwords the film came out and I saw it in Denver also. Still one of my favorite movies. I've owned it in 8 track, cassette, CD, VHS and now DVD.

I saw this movie sometime back in the 1970s with my parents.

I had been addicted to the music since the early 70s when I would be out with my parents on weekends riding around in the station wagon and my parents would be cranking the 8-track tape original concept. I would later sneak and play the tape while they were out...I was barely 10 by this time!

I think I have played the original concept albums 1000+ times, enjoyed the movie over the years 500+ times and have never gotten tired of it. This movie will live with me till I am gone and I thank my parents for introducing it to me at such a young age.

I first seen this on T.V. in the mid 70's when I was about 6. I have been fascinated and have adored this movie ever since. I recently got a chance to see it on the big screen which was an awesome experience. The movie is a must for the big screen it should be shown more. If it was it would find a new audience to appreciate it.

I remember my father listening to the record when I was very young, probably 3 or 4, and looking at the pictures of the record as we listened, and he would tell me the story. I found it very intriguing and had a million questions about it. The songs are all ingrained in memory. I can't listen to "Everything's Alright" without getting a little misty eyed because it reminds me of my childhood.

I saw the movie after the songs were already pretty much burned in my memory, but I was still very young, probably about 5 at the time. I remember thinking it was cool how they came and left on a bus, Judas was so cool. This will always be my favorite interpretation of the Passion story, since it's pretty much how I was first exposed to it.

Our children are old enough to read icculus.

Saw this as a kid and it still remains today as one of my favorite movies ever. Unfortunately since I know all the words to every song I kinda can't sit and watch it casually (LOL)... it always becomes a solo Karaoke night with me, haha.

Greed is good... but I have never seen a BRINKS truck pull up near a cemetery.

First saw it in grade nine religion class.

I saw it the first month it was released. It had an overwhelming effect on me, and actually was the first step in leading me back toward Christianity, which I had abandoned 10 years earlier. That process took another 20 years to complete, but it started with this movie. It spoke to me in a way no presentation of Christianity ever had. My husband and I still watch it every Easter, and it always has such a strong effect on us.
The only other film I ever saw that had that kind of profound effect, causing me to feel like some of my most basic beliefs were being re-arranged, was "2001 A Space Odyssey."
