Easter movies While exercising earlier I started thinking about Easter movies. My favorite 'Rude' seems to be a blasphemous choice but that was the first one I thought of. Others:
Passion of the Christ Meet Me In St. Louis The Robe The Ten Commandments The Matrix I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think. | |

TCM is doing their annual Easter marathon. They usually show Ben Hur every year but they're not today. No matter, I got it on DVD and I'ma watch it after the Lakers game.
The rest of today's lineup:
The Greatest Story Ever Told (on right now) Jesus Christ Superstar Godspell

Another Easte-ish epic is Quo Vadis. Great cast. Peter Ustinov as Nero was too funny. | |

Hellooooo! Easter Parade! We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

No offense to any but Easter doesn't get any Whiter than than. lol
I think that's the movie I was thinking of instead of 'Meet Me in St. Louis' which was about the 1904 World's Fair. I remember the Easter Parade . . . [Edited 4/24/11 15:15pm] I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think. | |

Interesting to see you include The Matrix, SUPRMAN. It clearly follows the Gospel arch, but I never thought of it in line with the season.
Have you ever seen Easy Rider? Watch it with a Gospel framework and see what you get out of it. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

I watched 'The Matrix' on Easter. Not your typical Easter movie but neither is' Rude' (Which is a Canadian film.) Have only seen pieces of 'Easy Rider.' I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think. | |
