In the movie The Fourth Wise Man from 1985, viewers are taken on a journey through time to ancient Persia, where we meet Artaban (played by Martin Sheen), a devout man who has devoted his life to studying the stars in hopes of one day seeing the sign that will lead to the birth of the Messiah. When he finally sees the sign, Artaban sets out to join the other three wise men in their journey to find the newborn King.

Along the way, however, Artaban faces a series of challenges and obstacles that prevent him from reaching his destination. He learns about the suffering and poverty of the people around him, and feels called to stop and help those in need, even if it means delaying his journey to see the Messiah.

The movie is packed with powerful themes about faith, sacrifice, and the importance of putting others before oneself. As Artaban struggles to find his place in the world and discern his calling, viewers are inspired to reflect on their own lives and the ways in which they can use their talents and resources to make a positive impact on others.

One of the standout performances in the movie is from Alan Arkin, who plays Abgarus, a ruthless governor who seeks to put an end to Artaban's search for the Messiah. Arkin brings a depth and complexity to his character, showing the audience that even the villains in the story have their own fears, motivations, and struggles.

Eileen Brennan also shines in her role as Esther, a kind-hearted woman who helps Artaban along his journey. Her performance is warm and genuine, showing us that even the smallest acts of kindness can have a profound impact on those around us.

Overall, The Fourth Wise Man is a moving and inspiring movie that is perfect for anyone looking for a heartwarming story of faith and hope. With its stunning cinematography, powerful performances, and thought-provoking themes, this is a film that will stick with viewers long after the closing credits roll.
