I don’t agree with all of the movies on the “50 Greatest Catholic Movies of All Time. (Quiz Show? Groundhog Day? I wouldn’t have picked Schindler’s list either, because of Liam Neeson flashing his bum.)

Here are the ones I would keep on the list and others I would add below:

Greatest Catholic Movies:
Going My Way
The Quiet Man
Song of Bernadette
Ben Hur
A Man for All Seasons
It’s a Wonderful Life
The Scarlet and the Black

Additions:
The Passion
Sound of Music
The Trouble with Angels
Keys to the Kingdom (Gregory Peck)
How Green was My Valley (Maureen O’Hara, Roddy McDowell)
An Affair to Remember (scene where they visit the aunt)
Yours, Mine and Ours
A Thousand Men and a Baby (a little cheesey with “John Boy”, but a tear-jerker)
Cinderella Man (Russell Crowe)
Count of Monte Cristo (Jim Caviezel)
Lord of the Rings Trilogy
Trouble Along the Way (John Wayne, Donna Reed)
Bella (probably came out after list was published)

I am sure I am missing a bunch. Anyone have any others?
