I saw "Abraham" around 15 years ago. I loved it even though the pace was slow because of how Abraham is portrayed as being so stubborn and persistent in his belief in God's faithfulness despite so many obstacles, external objections and peer pressure. Something I could related to when I first watched the movie. For some people this movie might be considered boring because slow and slow because boring, but totally disagree. It seems to me that it was perfectly paced. But that might be because of what I brought to the movie theologically and existentially.
This movie is recommended by some of the associates of Dr. James White and the folks at AOmin.org. If I recall correctly, even Dr. White recommended it.
A DVD copy of the movie is also being given away for free by NiceneCouncil.com, but you have to pay for shipping and handling ($5.95 US, or $12 International).
Here's a link to the 1953 Luther movie with Niall MacGinnis as Luther
The 2003 Luther movie with Joseph Fiennes as Luther is so recent most people will be able to rent the movie or borrow it from a local library.
I especially like the 1974 Luther movie with Stacey Keach as Luther. It portrays Luther warts and all. It realistically shows both the good and bad both in Luther and in what resulted from his reformation. As a former Roman Catholic myself I can testify to how Keach masterfully portrays how a Catholic can experience spiritual vertigo when he takes his faith seriously. Unfortunately this version with Keach isn't freely online. Though, some local libraries have it.
The text of the original play by John Osborne on which the movie was based can be accessed HERE
This is a link to a movie about John Wycliffe who is called "the Morning Star of the Reformation" because he was a forerunner of the Reformation. He championed many of the things the Reformers did during the Protestant Reformation.
There's a lot of discussion going on about how there are a lot of Bible based movies currently in production. For example HERE and HERE and HERE.
In light of that, I'm reminded of the many Bible based movies I watched in my youth. So, as I find them online, I'll post them here.
Here's the classic movie Samson and Delilah with Victor Mature as Samson. I loved the movie as a youth and I still do. If you can rent this from a library or video rental store on DVD, do it. Seeing it in TECHNICOLOR is a whole other experience.
