Gabriela Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Are there any??? I can only stream, not order DVDs... :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhuturePriest Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Two wonderful ones are Therese and John of the Cross, both available for instant stream. They are both excellent and done by Leonardo Defilipis. The Passion of the Christ is also on there, and though it isn't Catholic and has a Protestant-ism here or there, Fireproof is also on instant stream and it's a movie I really enjoy.

Basilisa Marie Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Leonardo Defilipis lives in the next town over from me, and the actress who played Therese went to my high school. :) I was friends with his son. "The Way" is a good movie about a dad going on a pilgrimage to remember his son. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, his St. Luke Productions does really awesome one person plays. I think I remember him doing St. Francis of Assisi at my parish one year. Well, next time you're in the Archdiocese of Portland, OR, I'll try to introduce ya. Anywho. Yeah. Catholics live in a very, very small world. :) Also try searching for The Bells of St. Mary's. I think that one's on Instant. Just try searching the titles of any classic movies, those tend to be on instant.

A list of those would be helpful, too. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was one of him recently where he was acting as Christ throughout his life (Though I'm not sure if it went to his Passion or not; it was perhaps just the years of Jesus' ministry). And oh yes, the actual topic of the thread! The Bells of Saint Mary's is on there, as well as Going My Way, both of which are completely amazing and worth it. An alleged Catholic film on instant stream worth not watching ever in your life: Saint of 9/11. Edited January 10, 2013 by FuturePriest387 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriela Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 An alleged Catholic film on instant stream worth not watching ever in your life: Saint of 9/11. Why? What's wrong with it? I saw that one last night on the Netflix list and thought it looked interesting... And what about the one about Maximilian Kolbe? I'm really not into Holocaust stuff, but if it's mostly about him and his life as opposed to the usual Holocaust movie thing, I'd like to learn more about him. BTW: Did this thread inspire you to watch Therese again and then post about crying "manly tears"? ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed! Then I had a literal sob session for nearly an hour and I wanted to post about it, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I watched The Sound of Music, I started bawling when Mother Abbess forced Maria to leave the abbey. As soon as I felt it welling up, I shouted (alone in my apartment), "WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!?!?!" LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always struggled with trying to cry, and it was nice to finally have normal human emotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Era Might Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 "The Way" is a good movie about a dad going on a pilgrimage to remember his son. :) Is that the one with Martin Sheen? I want to see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixpence Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 i liked The Way... i heard that for the greater glory was on streaming now too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximilianus Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) There Be Dragons should still be available for streaming. It's not really a Catholic movie, but it's a movie about Catholics. Features St. Josemaria Escriva. It's good, not great, def worth a watch. Has violence Edited January 10, 2013 by Maximilianus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dUSt Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Last I checked "The Mission" and "The Passion of the Christ" were both on Netflix streaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
