I dunno in America or in Europe, but here in Lebanon they always put those old christian movies on TV. I may have seen some for the 100th time, i still like to watch certain scenes... it gives some sort of nostalgic yet naive feeling...

If by Gladiator you mean the one with that Russel Crowe then thats what I voted for. We don't really get that many Christian films really, just the cartoon channels have marathons and the normal TV's show more general films 'cus everyones on holidays. [addsig]

being a charlton heston fan, kinda narrows it down for me, but without having the 10 commandments to vote for makes this list look wrong :/

yes, i am agnostic guys, but ben hur and 10 commandments are still excellent movies.

Yep that's the one! It's not really a christian movie like the others, but it's still a historical movie with romans, gladiators ...

And yea, I forgot the 10 commandments... I guess this poll is not very useful. On our local television networks, they put those movies over and over this time of the year. Western world is much more agnostic than I thought...

Orph, I used to be a Charlton Heston fan too, but I got very disappointed when I knew he was the head of the NRA... I know "bowling for columbine" has exagerated this side, but still... the heroic image of my favorite actor was kind of broken. He's played in such wonderful movies other than the two monuments ("planet of the apes", "agony and extasy" where he plays Michel Angelo...)

Heston is an asshat.
