I’m all for it. While most of the Bible stories have been told on film through the years, far too many have been so secularized and embellished they completely loose their impact.

I consider a film like Gospel of John to be one of the best and most faithful Bible films in my life. It was entertaining for both Believers and non alike, but faithful to the text.

And there have been some really dreadful ones like the Noah’s Ark - I believe it was a made for TV version in 99? That was so very bad.

Could you give a few examples of Biblical films which approached their subject from an embellished, secular viewpoint? I ask this out of some admitted ignorance on the subject, not being a Christian myself.
