Curiosidades
Rachel Weisz was offered a large part in this film when she was only 14, but her parents would not allow her to do it.

Pifias
The "Star of David" on the shields and military standards is inaccurate. The symbol only came into common usage as a religious/national symbol many decades later. (Some believe during the middle ages) Assuming that this symbol represents David, as the name suggests, this would not be an Israelite symbol until the time of David's Kingship. This is out of place during the reign of King Saul.

Citas
[first lines]
Saul's guard: The king cannot speak with you now. He is engaged in the affairs of state.
Samuel: Since when have the affairs of state taken precedence over the affairs of God?
[shoves his way past and enters Saul's throne room]
Saul: ...Samuel. We welcome you. With God's blessing, our victory is complete.
Samuel: Is THIS how you show Him your gratitude... by robbing the Amalekites of their women and cattle? By holding their king in chains?
Saul: We were discussing a possible treaty. The king is to be ransomed...
Samuel: A *treaty?* *Ransom?* Saul, for this you have betrayed your own soul in the sight of God. His instructions were plain enough: "... Spare nothing from the sword."
[beheads the Amalekite king]
Samuel: ... When our tribes clamored for a king, to make us like other nations, I answered them: "We are not like other nations. The Lord of Hosts is both our God and our King." The people said, "We want a king we can see. We want a king of our own flesh and blood."
[holds up the severed head]
Samuel: Here are your kings of flesh and blood. Here is a king you can see.
[throws the head at Saul's feet]

Decent Historical Epic

"King David" is a pretty good historical drama; it is not as bad as some of the reviews state. It has good production values and it moves at a nice pace making this a rare epic that is not too long. However the weak point of this film is the script; it could have been better. Thus I rate this film a 7/10.
