SAINT PADRE PIO
Italian mini-series (dubbed in English) on the life of Padre Pio
BLESSED RUPERT MAYER
A German priest put in a concentration camp for speaking against Nazism
ST. BERNADETTE
Oscar winning film (including Best Actress for Jennifer Jones as Bernadette) about the life of Bernadette and Our Lady of Lourdes. Highly recommended
ST. JOHN VIANNEY
French film (with English subtitles) on the life of the Cure of Ars.
ST. THERESE OF LISIEUX
Another French film (dubbed in English) on the life of the little flower saint in a semi-documentary style. Turn on the captions (CC) so that the subtitles appear.
ST. JOSEPH OF CUPERTINO
This Hollywood production stars Oscar winner Maximilian Schell as the “flying saint” who was not expected to accomplish much because he was slow intellectually.
ST. POPE JOHN PAUL II
A understandably Polish production, this is yet the most moving and most comprehensive film on the life of JP2. The first movie ends with his election as Pope while the second ends with his death. Anchored by a moving performance by Piotr Adamczyk as Karol Wojtyla. Movie is still good viewing almost 70 years after it was first shown.
ST. POPE JOHN XXIII
In his short stint as Pope, John XXIII influenced and set the tone for many of the progressive changes that the church undertook in the 60s. Bob Hoskins, a British actor, is an interesting choice as the Italian pope. Version below has 2 parts, commercials and ironically, Arabic subtitles. Turn the CC button on for English subtitles
