That’s a Christian movie, not a Bible movie

To complete the cycle.

Sorry, I can't read.

It’s fine, I make mistakes like that on this board all the time

Pasolini was an edgy conservative reactionary. Watch it and read his essays. Salo you can take a pass on but understand the film is depicting liberalism.

"The Nativity Story" from 2006 is very good. It only deviates from Church tradition in a couple of points (Joseph was old and married Mary as a mercy, not to be a sexual wife, and Mary did not suffer in childbirth and was uncorrupted i.e the baby was born from her side before anyone says "that's not possible" remember that He created the world ex nihilo), both of which were changed in the movie, probably because it was made by protestants.

"Risen" from 2016 is pretty good although not strictly speaking Biblical.
fwiw it's a remake of "the final inquiry" from the 80s, which isn't very good. There was another remake about a decade ago which was alright. all of these i just mentioned, though, are just remakes of "The Robe" which is also pretty good.

"Leap of Faith" with Steve Martin is a good movie about Christianity but again, not Biblical.

"A Charlie Brown Christmas" from 1965 has a Gospel reading in it.

"The Bishop's Wife" yeah I know but those Anglicans/Episcopalians with David Niven is pretty good, not perfect, but enjoyable. Again, not Biblical.

I forgot to mention, the early 50s version of "A Christmas Carol" aka Scrooge is very good and has a lot of Christian content.

Pasolini was an extremely hardcore ultracommunist.
Communists critique "liberalism" all the time, to them, liberalism is the ideology of those who compromise with the status quo and still try to sell themselves as progressive. His Decameron, canterbury tales, and arabian nights all selectively pick tales that attack organized religion and flaunt "open" (aka depraved) sexuality.
Not only was he explicitly homosexual, he was infamous for being an outright pedophile and bribing homeless children in the slums into becoming catamites.

not that poster, but there is an extended scene (during a back and forth between Andrei and Theophanes debating naivety versus cynicism) depicting the passion of christ
