The Passion Of The Christ Ch4 tonight 16 Years ago
This is the Mel Gibson film and I think it is devastating - difficult, painful, agony to watch but incredibly impressive - so far superior to the wet BBC TV version that it is frightening.
Critics slaughtered it. I admired it hugely. Over to you.

I think this is the best film made on the subject and is close to a masterpiece. I've got it on DVD and although not necessarily Christian I like to watch it every 9 months or so as I like the message.
I loved that Gibson used the Aramaic language-it sounds quite wonderful when spoken.
It's extraordinarily brutal-but crucifixtion would have been wouldn't it-but those whipping scenes-I'm not sure anyone would have survived that !.
