Films about Jesus for Easter. The best Christmas suggestions
One of the suggestions for films about Jesus that will surely appeal to the youngest and will put them in the Christmas spirit is: “Meeting with Jesus” directed by Derek W. Hayes and Stanislav Sokolov from 2000. The main character of the film is Tamar, a sick girl who one day meets a man and recognizes that he is Jesus Christ himself (played by Ralph Fiennes). Father Tamar, skeptical of Jesus, changes his mind when the Messiah saves the life of Mary Magdalene. He asks Jesus to heal his child.
An award-winning production by Martin Scorsese “The Last Temptation of Christ” it is quite a controversial work, but at the same time extremely addictive. This film is an adaptation of the book by Nikos Kazantzakis and discusses the fate of Jesus Christ (played by Willem Dafoe) tempted by the opportunity to lead an ordinary life. The way the story was presented caused a lot of discussion among believers, for whom it was a kind of blasphemy against God.
Religious films for Easter. A cult film by Gibson and something from old cinema
It is not without reason that the title of one of the most cult and most watched films of the period goes to Mel Gibson’s famous production. “Passion” shows the last dozen or so hours of the life of Jesus Christ: his suffering, crucifixion and resurrection. All scenes, especially the bloody ones, were presented in an extremely realistic way, which makes the film well reflect what Jesus could have faced.
Often, during Easter, another production about the life of Jesus is shown on television, namely: “A Tale of All Time”. Although it comes from 1965, it still attracts fans of religious films. The film shows the history from the birth of Jesus Christ to the moment of his martyrdom. However, the main focus was on the adult life of the Messiah, his teachings and the miracles he performed.
Funny Easter videos. Two unusual stories about Easter bunnies
Since Easter is associated with a pleasant time spent with family, all household members will have a great time “Hop”, an animation directed by Tim Hill from 2011. The producers of “Ice Age” are responsible for its creation. The main character is Zet, an Easter bunny who plans to start a musical career. However, he must meet many challenges, including: sneaky chicken carlos.
“Hank and Mike” from 2008, directed by Matthiew Klinck, to, which has been called one of the cult productions about Easter. It’s about friends dressed as Easter bunnies who give others baskets of sweets. At one point, fate presents them with a challenge: they are fired. The production presents in a funny way how the “rabbits” dealt with this difficult moment.
Other cool Easter movies. A proposition for children and a romantic comedy
Another interesting idea for an Easter movie for children is: “Bunny Max: Easter Egg Mission” from 2022. This is a funny animated story of the titular bunny who starts training at the Hare Academy. His task is to maintain holiday traditions and save Easter. However, it will not be easy, because a family of cunning foxes will try to prevent Maks from doing so.
“Easter Surprise” from 2019, directed by Gary Yates, is a pleasant proposition that will also attract the whole family to the screen. It tells the story of a marketing director who, wanting to find out the reasons for the decline in chocolate sales, meets the chief chocolatier. Their attempts to find the cause of their problems bring them closer together, all in an Easter atmosphere.
