- Esther and the King - Two decades before she would gain fame and some fortune as Alexis Carrington on Dynasty (1981), Dame Joan Collins starred as Esther in this melodramatic, routine Biblical story. The setting is Persia in the fourth century B.C., as Esther comes to the attention of the recently widowed King Ahasuerus. The King has been trying to stifle and defeat the campaign of hatred fomented against the Jews by his evil minister Haman (Sergio Fantoni). Before the King can pair off with Esther and defeat the villainous Haman, there are several intervening adventures and an additional, attractive woman who competes for attention.

Reviews:
"Amidst the wars, pageantry, violence and mayhem, not to mention palace intrigues, is a touching story of Esther's growing love for the king, played by Richard Egan, one handsome fellow, I must admit. In many of the quieter scenes the lovely music adds much to the atmosphere, evoking gentler moods and feelings. As well, I've always admired Denis O'Dea whatever role he played, and here as the steadfast Mordecai he gives a fine performance as usual. I like the sincerity of the actors, and an innocent portrayal of Esther by Joan Collins is so refreshing. The pace of the story is steady throughout so that one doesn't feel slowed down. Most action episodes are fierce enough for me, thank you, as some violence is inevitable in movies such as this. All in all it's a good movie that I personally cherish."-Written by lora64 on IMDb.com
"What do you get when you put middle-range American stars in the leading roles in a peplum film? Pretty good peplum, that's what. Contrary to what one might expect, "Esther and the King" is not a lavish Hollywood historical spectacle in the mode of DeMille, but is an Italian production using Joan Collins and Richard Egan to play the eponymous characters. For this reason the film is often characterized as a bargain-basement epic, whereas it is actually a peplum with a slightly higher than average budget. Appealing performances by the leads, a delightfully schlocky musical score, a good story, and atmospheric sets and cinematography makes this an enjoyable sword-&-sandal effort."-Written by darius_m_klein on IMDb.com

She was definitely a real Queen that GOD chose Esther!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
joan collins is a legend of hollywood she is still a real.beauty even now god bless her❤
Great deliverance did God give to his people during the time of Esther. Now, even as then Yahweh will never forsake his people! They are the apple of his eye.
Really, how quickly you forget the Romans, esp Nero, & Hitler.
Yes, the scripture says a remnant not all Jewish people are saved
Excellent movie.
The wisdom of God.
God always find a way to deliver His people.
The Book of Esther is a good book to read.
Esther won the king's heart as God wished it so. She saved her people. Innocence and justice will prevail.
A good movie.
I watched it and it's amazing movie of the bible I enjoyed it ,God bless you, you made the bible story come alive
Thanks!
I Iove this movie. Beautiful film. The most important things for me is our Faith and Trust in God.
The King’s Counsellor always seeking Gods Counsel!!!!! Ester was there for a purpose!!!! To save her people…, !!!!😮
So true. Mordecai is an amazing man. I'm still learning about the Old Testament and my favorite stories are found in it. God's power is known and felt throughout.
Esther was a very humble and kind
My goodness. Every Esther actress is truly beautiful and kind looking
Exelent actuall movie!!
Better the movies that produce today!!❤❤
Glory goes back to God 🙏
Thank You
her face still looks very good and a real beauty the age is a grace from god ❤
Such an enlightening show in a timely fashion. Thank you Joan Collins.
Twisted story of the true biblical one
It is not a documentary. Do you people not know the difference between a film and a documentary?
I agree. Its a sacrilege. It misrepresent the true Esther
None of this hardly resembles the true Biblical story. Really too too Hollywood with much rebellion from Esther. She was courageous. Not rebellious. She also never cheated. She was beautiful, courageous and loyal.
"✨Jehovah God ✨is the same ⚡God⚡ today as he was back then ! 🌬... " Allelujah ! " . " Jah is just as Faithful now as he was back then ... 🎶... be ' Grateful ' Children of the Most High ...📜... 🛡Amen 🛡 ! Great Hollywood Actor's/Actresses and Hollywood storyline teller's too 🎈! "
I appreciate the classic.these throw back is very worthy.have a magnificent day
❤❤❤❤❤ GOD bless you ❤ i love it
The only person who still alive in this movie is Joan Collins. She is now 90. Anybody else involved with the making of this movie is dead. So nobody is listening. Back then this is how movies were made. It's also about the money invested in these movies. In today's world, if this movie was being made, i'm sure that they would have a closer union with the bible and the storyline.
God was good and he is always good 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
How can any movie be true to the Bible , the Bible was written by a man of his memory. But these films are good to watch and put the Gods Bible out there to be remembered. Thank you.❤️🇬🇧🙏
The Bible is the Holy Spirit inspired Word of God. Although many writers who were all inspired by the Holy Spirit over more than 1,000 years, yet still only ONE Divine Author. God said don't add anything to His Word, and don't take anything away from it.
this movie is so far in the true storie of queen esther😁
That's before Joan Collins joined the 80's Primetime Soap "Dynasty" & became Dame Joan Collins.
Praise the Lord 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
For those who still watch this version of Esther, this is not the way it’s written in the Bible. In fact it’s so far off that it’s scary!! Be careful what you watch!!!
SO FAR OFF!
Yes , this Easther story is not like this in the bible.
Totally agree!
It is not the same as what is written in a Bible, Becareful of what we watch
Yes, discernment is needed. A movie like this should spark curiosity on what God's word really say. Prayers.
Spirit of god bless you all and love
I love ❤️ this movie 🍿 with Richard Egan and Joan Collins she was so beautiful 🤩 how she became queen 👸 the king 🤴 how to look for a queen 👸 his wife didn’t realize that the king friend betrayed him because he wanted to be king 🤴
While I appreciate creative license, the authentic biblical account, in my opinion, is much more enthralling. Having Esther with someone/or a betrothed, prior to meeting the king, cheats the storyline a bit. Not necessary.
I agree. There are a lot of inaccuracies with this version
There are other literatures that contain stories that go beyond the what the bible. There is a whole book on esther.
@@mercyinioluwa69711❤7
I agree
I'm with cha!
If I perish while doing good works then my life is worth the living,all we do for the Kingdom matters let's make good. Ralph and Marshella Joan Collins
They are all wonderful people from Chile to Australia as well from India my country
Thank you for uploading a good looking copy with full, clear sound!😊 This is the BEST COPY on RUclips!
sinto MUITO se vc conhece esse filme por causa de um crítico de cinema...
JESUS ONLY TRUE SAVIOUR JESUS ONLY TRUE GOD AMEN
No, posing as an angel of light stumbling block from the 1 True Yah Kumbyah ONLY
I haveh eard about it a bit. Interesting
isalang ang makakapag papahina nitu panalagen at pag mamahal pagkakaisa nang lahat salamat po kung may naniwala j hart
Haman whipped someone who followed the order that Haman gave him, because "HE TOOK OUT THE WOMAN WHO WORE THE GOLDEN ROBE."
A couple of years later, Richard Egan played Leonidas in "The Three Hundred Spartans". Great movie.
Many of the people in the comments complain that this movie isn't in line with the story in the bible.
The Bible, you mean the texts that were written centuries after said events took place. Yes, I'm sure they were 100% accurate with no embellishments at all.
This isn't even close to the true story. Somebody took the names from the Bible, and made up a story to go with it.
OmGOD yes smh
Nice film, but many characters in this film are not telled after Holy Bible. Vashti was not adulterous, she was desrespecting the king and was banished. Esther was not engaged to another man before the marriage. Haman was assigned to chief minister after the banishment of Vashti. Haman was personally a solid husband and family father. He didn't have an adulterous relationship to Vashti or others. Haman or other men have no access to the women's palace. No concubines of the king would have been given to soldiers. Mordecai was not Minister but a guard of the main door. After the revealing of Esther he became chief minister.
The storyline of politics is told differently to the book Esther.
Reading some comments tells me that people would rather be entertained even with fabrications, Truly life is depicted as a Comedy of fools.
I would respectfully argue that the king was the one who disrespected Vashti, he ordered her to basically parade herself before a bunch of drunk and leering partygoers. He should have been the one to take her out of such situations, not place her in them. He was going to use her as a display and that is not respectful as she is a human not a vase or a showhorse.
❤❤who so ever believe in him should not die
The Bible says whoever believe and has the son of God has life ❣️
And who ever believe not will not see life
Jesus said what is flesh is flesh and what is spirit is spirit
Not exactly true to the Bible story but thoroughly enjoyable
yes agree not exactly they dont read the bible first 😁
Lots of poetical license taken with this movie.
Anyone wanting to know the real stories ?! Read the Bible…
I was thinking the same.
So much distortion is visible ,Not the Exact historical Real story according to Bible
Amen
It's a Hollywood film. The Bible is a book of fiction so it's good source material!
My 2nd wedding my wife bring me so much happiness I will be always be very humbled person
True story of Esther is in Bible
Joan Collins is a classic Old Hollywood beauty
Not Hollywood. British......
@@brian5154 but she was a Hollywood star
Dame Joan Collins
True story of Ester is in the Bible
It is true
Yes this Easter story does not match as per the bible.
@@gracemalangmeinienu863
When has Hollywood ever given a true account of the bible, that would defeat their purpose.
The Ten Commandments is a true account of the bible.
This movie is a diversion of the real teachings about Esther 😢liars
Yes the real story is in the Bible back in those days a king 🤴 did that they would look for a virgin who was pure no men touch
❤❤the Bible says Jesus chirst will make an appearance
The rapture
Of the church
The Bible says
For god so loved 😍 the world 🌎 that he sent his only begotten son That who so ever believes in him should not die
Good
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
I just love ❤️ this movie 🎥 we’re did they get those clothes the women were so beautiful
SUPER MOVI
Esther your heart very beautiful girl Godbless you longlive Esther people
India and world countries are wonderful resplendent countries in this Kaliyug era
❤ first John
Says for God so loved 😍😍 the world 🌎🌍 that he gave his only begotten son whosoever believe in him should not perish
It's weird that most of the Persians had no beard, and the king himself also!
My better opinion that, whoever have true faith in lord, lord would be near to us always. THANKS
Yes Esther is in. The. Bilbal
Awesome 😎

This is not the story of Esther at all. More like inspired by the story. But enjoyable None the less.
Key of David Who sits next to the King Queen Esther...
Joan Collins so beautiful.
About to turn 90 and just photographed in leather jacket and skin tight pants!
Her father wad Jewish, very handsome man
Absolutely atrocious of this beautiful story
Oh lord favour me as favoured esther
Good stuff 👍
Amen
This story is bs. Read the Book of Esther. Dont believe everthing you see.
15:12 Foreshadowing 😮
❤❤
So much distortion in movie from historical Real story written in Bible
Yes, real story is in the Bible and i will be glad if they go by what's in the bible.
@@julianatakyiwaa854 Absolutely!
Lanka the Goddess appeared before King Ravana and Ravana payed salutations to Lanka because Ravana was very pious man
This film is so far from Biblical accuracy it's insulting to the true story of Ester.
What is this nonsense 😢😢😢😢😢
Easter and her uncle Mordecai sat outside the Persian Kings Palace until the King notice her and she entered his harem. Apparently even in 17/18th century Arabs and Turkish pirates came and stole Europeans as slaves.
I can't bflievf in greek he was called Ασουήρος (Assouiros). Interesting!
King Ravana built a wonderful city
There’s only two actresses alive from this movie.
Sobra na talaga pandagdag hindi na tu
This is just a regular movies not the movie on the Bible it's just a love story with the same names in the Bible but it's not an actual Bible story they went totally Off Script
10 commandments went way off
Especially with Joshua. And the water girl
What we study is what they must act because they will be contradictions if people act anyhow.
Just a heads up - Not even near to the Biblical version. Just a movie based on someone's imagination. Again, this is NOT the Biblical version
I’ve seen other versions of this story and they’re all different in details. These movies are for entertainment mainly and not made accurately as word to word from bible.
Love u to Jesus lord❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
They were loyal to the king and served him well
THe informaton is very interesting and good to watch, However, the movie has no bearing on the Biblical account, none what so ever, except the names of 'some' as noted in the Bible.
The movie is interesting, however, it's not Biblically correct, especially on the reason Vashti was banished and also Esther was not betrothed before being chosen. Otherwise, it is a beautiful love story that shows that God places us where we can be used in various capacities. 😇
Deci,Acest Rege răspunde pentru Mine.
