The Passion of the Christ

This 2004 film directed by Mel Gibson is known for its graphic depiction of the violent scourging and crucifixion of Jesus. It opens in the Garden of Gethsemane as Jesus prays and closes with a brief vision of the Resurrection. A powerful picture of what Jesus suffered, it may be too strong for youth and others sensitive to violence. Parental guidance advised—watch on Blu-ray or DVD.
