FREE: Bernadette of Lourdes / Gospel According to St.Matthew

The listing, Bernadette of Lourdes / Gospel According to St.Matthew has ended.

Although this is a used DVD, like all movies in my collection, it is in perfect condition...

Plot:
A religious drama based on the life of St. Bernadette Soubirous, the woman who at the age of fourteen in February and March of 1858, had a total of eighteen visions of the Virgin Mary. Doing as instructed, Bernadette digs by a large rock, revealing a "healing spring" that is still visited today - the Lourdes.

Christ's life is presented with respect for the traditional religious doctrine of the Church, but Pasolini's trademark naturalism "humanizes" his subject and makes Him his own. The documentary-style camera captures Christ's meetings with the men who were to become his disciples, the Last Supper, the betrayal by Judas and the Crucifixion. The impassioned music of Bach, Mozart and Prokofiev lends a further aura of spiritual intensity to the proceedings.
