En quête d'une nouvelle épouse, le roi des Perses demande qu'on lui amène les plus belles jeunes filles du royaume. Parmi celles-ci figure Esther, dont la beauté le séduit immédiatement. Il ignore qu'elle est juive. Peu apreès, le roi promeut son fidèle Haman au poste de premier ministre. Or, Haman hait les juifs. (ESC Distribution)
Critiques (1)
I liked the series quite a bit on Hallmark (mostly because of Samson and Delilah), but I only saw this particular episode recently. I purposely wanted to see it because of Louise Lombard, the excellent Evie Eliott from the excellent BBC series The House of Eliott. It was one of the few big roles she did before joining the American CSI series, and I really liked her in it. She still possessed the glamor that she wrapped around every man in 1920s London, and I just can't accept that she turned into a regular skinny blonde shortly thereafter. :( The story of the pleasant, didactic, and unproblematic The Bible: Esther is told at a favorably soothing pace, and it is really only thanks to them that I don't find the basic Bible stories difficult. It's also a pleasing combination of the best of the participating co-producing countries. It is because of the influence of this series that I really miss those great narrative films set in the ancient Orient. I've had enough of the ancient world and Cleopatra.
