BigJon16 Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Like I said, Pope Pius XII is by far one of the best movies that I have found on Netflix Instant, other than The Way and Serenity. The movie is the best rebuttal to all of the accusations against Pius that I have seen over his actions during WWII. The way that it was filmed very much reminded me of Karol: The Man Who Became Pope. Ken Duken played roles in both films. James Cromwell does an excellent job playing the Pope. I thought There Be Dragons was an awesome one too. There are some great "non-denominational Christian Inspirational" movies on Netflix as well. There are also some pretty horrible ones, so be weary.
Era Might Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 I don't know if this is on Netflix, but I want to see this new movie, about a Pope who runs away after getting elected lol: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VqNoLzZRkI
NonNovi Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Into Great Silence is not about Carmelites, it's about Trappist Monks. Into Great Silence is not about trappists, it's about the carthusians. Trappists are cistercians. "Sorry, Netflix is not available in your country yet" :( But maybe someone can check if The Cardinal is on there, one of my favorite movies. And The Scarlet and the Black. And the Don Camillo movies!

I have seen it, and it wasn't really as awesome as I thought it would be. There were some funny and touching moments, but the end was a bit of a letdown..

I meant Carthusians. I was tired when I wrote that.
Era Might Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Anyone ever see "Becket" with Peter O'Toole and Richard Burton? I want to see it.
Gabriela Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) I really liked The Way, too. Saw it a few days ago. This thread has been extremely helpful! Keep 'em comin'! :-) Edited January 21, 2013 by curiousing
loveletslive Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Vision (about St. Hildegard) The Agony and the Ecstasy Lourdes Maximilian: Saint of Auschwitz A Man Called Peter (not entirely sure if this is about a Catholic chaplain or not...haven't watched it but the cover has a guy in a collar) Becket Lilies of the Field (love! so good! Sydney Poitier is a wandering carpenter who ends up helping recently emigrated German nuns build a new chapel)
dominicansoul Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Into Great Silence put me into great sleep... :sleep:
Maximilianus Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Into Great Silence put me into great sleep... :sleep: The you slept right through the scene where they give the recipe for chartreuse.
PhuturePriest Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Into Great Silence put me into great sleep... :sleep: What else can we expect from a woman that loves Dominicans?
catholic3in1 Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 Just saw There Be Dragons on Netflix, it was pretty awesome! Inspiring!

I'd like to see it. Anyone ever see "Becket" with Peter O'Toole and Richard Burton? I want to see it. Saw this, good movie.
Slappo Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 I love this thread! I just added like 5 things to instant queue.... :)
LouisvilleFan Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Anyone ever see "Becket" with Peter O'Toole and Richard Burton? I want to see it. Yep. Very good. Interesting parallels to Thomas More (and the movie "A Man for All Seasons" is also available to stream) with the King of England attempting to control the Church in his country by means of appointing a puppet bishop. It's pretty awesome seeing Becket's conversion after he is consecrated.
LouisvilleFan Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 "For Greater Glory" is also on there. Just watched it for the first time tonight. I found it to be better than the haters reported, but not as good as the fanboys liked. A lot of people criticized it for bad acting, but it seemed just fine to me. Cinematography was good too. It did seem a bit one-sided and the plot was predictable. But good enough for three stars, nonetheless.
Golden Years Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 My all time favorite....Audrey Hepburn in "The Nun's Story"... :winner:
mortify Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Good thing I still have access to to my Ex's netflix account :blues:
janayb5 Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) October Baby is a solid pro-life movie and entertaining. It is available on instant netflix. Edited March 5, 2013 by janayb5
