The Passion of the Christ


















2004

Director: Mel Gibson

Distributor: Newmarket Films / Fox Home Entertainment

Key Elements: Visuals - Message - Concept

My Review:

Though full of extra-Biblical Catholic elements, this is probably the best description we have of crucifixion. It’s graphic and intense and shows in gory detail exactly what Christ went through …for us.

Trailer:



Quotes:
  • He was wounded for our transgressions, crushed for our iniquities; by His wounds we are healed. Isaiah 53; 700 B.C.
  • ...But let your will be done, not mine.
  • There is no greater love than for a man to lay down his life for his friends… As I have loved you, so love one another.
  • What is truth?
  • Forgive them, Father. They know not what they do.
  • See, mother, I make all things new.
  • It is accomplished.My heart is ready.
