I did see that one. I greatly enjoyed it. When you get the opportunity to watch I recommend it!

Mine would be:

1) The Ten Commandments - My parents used to bring me to the cinema to watch it every year during Good Friday. But they don't show it anymore. As a child, I had always looked forward for the day every year. It had been become like a tradition for my family back then.

2) The Passion of the Christ - Thank God for Mel Gibson who created this movie that focused on our Lord Jesus Christ and His resurrection. I have been watching it repeatedly. Every time I watched it, I always have new revelation of God, and knowing that He died for me and loves me, makes me love Him even more.

I hope there will be more believer-director who will make films like this.

Babette's Feast is probably my favorite. It won an Oscar years ago. I watched it on Maundy Thursday last week, I had not seen it in a few years:

Babette's Feast - Wikipedia

I also like Scorsese's Silence.

Only the third film had anything redeeming in terms of realism or nuance.

I feel conflicted on this one. On the one hand, I appreciate its lack of moralism, but on the other hand, I feel like the religion being portrayed isn't a particularly flattering one. It seems too driven by personalities- Jesus/God is just in the background, what this is really about is human charisma. This is a film that even an atheist could watch and understand, for instance, and it won't exactly change their mind or open their eyes about anything.
