The movie attemps to fill in the gaps not mentioned in the bible and put right the wrongs that have been made about her.
When i first saw this movie a few years ago, with so much going on in my life I thought it was just an okay movie. Last night I watched it again with a clear state of mind and thought it was very good. I really enjoyed it.
Really good perfomances and a nice music score. |
I hadn't heard of this before so I had a quick look and saw it's directed by Garth Davis, the man who helmed Lion (2016) and stars Rooney Mara as Mary Magdalene, Joaquin Phoenix as Jesus Christ, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Peter, and Tahar Rahim as Judas. That's an impressive array of acting talent, so I'll keep an eye out for a reasonably priced Blu-ray.
