The 25 Best Films About Religious Figures According to Yardbarker

The cinema has long been fascinated with the issue of religion, and it has been particularly interested in faith figures — the men and women who, in one way or another, have inspired the masses. Indeed, the very best of such films help shed light on how the moving image can be a mode of devotion. Furthermore, the cinema has often produced films that manage to transport their audiences out of the world of the mundane and the earthly and into the realm of the divine, highlighting the influence of film as one of the most powerful means of human expression. Here are Yardbarker's picks for the best films about religious figures.
