Joseph's Gift (1999)
9/10
Awe-inspiring Drama
4 August 2008
I've been watching a lot of movies as of late, and so it's very difficult for one to stand out amongst the others. So to say that I watched Joseph's Gift on the same day as three other movies and it's the only one I remember, that's saying something.

Joseph's Gift is a modern retelling of the classic Joseph bible story, but the film is never preachy, overly-melodramatic, or sentimental. The film's hauntingly subdued aura is courtesy of two things mainly: Phillipe Mora's keen understanding of his source material, and the devastating performance of Freddy Rodriguez in the title part.

Do yourself a favor: Watch Joseph's Gift today. It's an experience you won't soon forget.
