JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR

THE 1973 NORMAN JEWISON FILM

 

I finally decided to take the bull by the horns, as it were, and put all of these lovely media shots and film stills in storyline order, and in a gallery set-up, so that this page will load faster. I also separated the media and publicity shots that were separable, and gave the publicity shots and film stills separate pages.  To do this, and keep giving credit where credit is due, I needed to thank all my contributors (to these pages) in one paragraph. I did it alphabetically by last name, so you can find yourselves easily, if you're looking (LOL!). If I left anyone out, please let me know and I will add you immediately! So, thank you to everyone who has contributed to my website, particularly this page:

FILM STILLS

First, here are some combined shots that are inseparable:


 


This is the only shot I couldn't find on the DVD.  I think it may have been
cut out of the final print.  Kudos for sending me this!  Thanks!  (Of course,
if I'm wrong, and someone finds it in the film, please let me know and I will
gladly put it in it's correct spot.)  Below is the Japanese version of the
same shot.



AND NOW ... IN STORYLINE ORDER ... THE FILM:



 

Overture






 

 

The bus arrives:







 













Did anyone notice Ted on the bus in both the pictures above?  Take a look!  (Thanks, Mianne, for the reveal!)


                      Umm ... check out the guy in the greenish paisley shirt on the left side of this picture.  Look familiar?

It's a little hidden, but you can see Ted and Yvonne kissing here (Just Ted's way of saying he cares for his friend).  



A little better view.

                                          An even better shot (I borrowed this from the photo section 
                                          of Ted-Neeley@yahoogroups.com (in case anyone reading/
                                          checking out this page doesn't know, both this group and
                                          ted-neeley-photos@yahoogroups.com have some really great  
                                          still shots in the files section!))

If you look closely,  you can see the silhouette of the shepherd in the lower left side of this picture. (Hint, he's above the word "you" in that sentence.)

Now he's right above the word "in" in this sentence.

You can see the sheep following after the Shepherd right under the sun.

You can also see the Shepherd and sheep a little better in these 6 captures below, courtesy of Spanish Sue:
