What is the best film about faith?

Greatest story never told

I know it's becoming a meme, but The Young Pope was really good.

Ordet. Everyone else needs to fuck off. I'm a hardcore atheist and so are a bunch of my friends and family, and this movie brought us all to tears.

Island (Ostrov)
Diary of a Country Priest
The Devils

Hell, I thought I would be first.

Its a pretty cliched answer but The Seventh Seal is great.
Flowers of St Francis is also pretty great.

It's great, but it's more about lack of faith.

No the best but i like Calvary.

What Dreams May Come?

The Master
Paths of Glory
Bad Lieutenant
Mean Streets
Tree of Life

Yeah Seventh Seal is a twentieth century atheist caricature of The Terrifying Dark Ages, and faith as a theologian would understand it plays no role at any point in the story. The Knight shoves religion entire to the side and instead, and in step with Sartre and Camus, takes up the ensignia of basic decency.

care to elaborate user? I have no concepts about what it's about but hear everyone talk about it all the time.

Basically an atheist pope trying to find God

A mediocre ten hour miniseries that could have made a masterful three hour film

which is why it is the best

On another note, Au Hasard Balthazar.

>Diary of a Country Priest

Correct!

>Atheist Pope
Did you even watch it?

>hardcore athiest
The fuck does that even mean? You strongly disbelieve in a god?

He's a religion hating fag cuz his dad made him go to church

he tips extra hard

If we're talking Christianity specifically, I LOVED Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ. Superb movie all around, and way more interesting than the Passion.

>The fuck does that even mean? You strongly disbelieve in a god?

Yeah I guess.

Scorcese's Silence which he mulled over for decades I think is the best film on particularly the concept on faith. On religion as a whole is debatable but its such a powerful well executed analysis of faith in things I don't think it will be passed.

Great soundtrack too.

Yes, did you?
He explicitly says he’s an atheist at least twice

This guy gets it.

Nah, this flick’s a snoozer

Worst palme winner

I also like Barabbas with Anthony Quinn. After he was spared so Jesus could die. Barabbas gained a reputation as a man who could not die and the film follows the course of his violent life into old age. He has great difficulty understanding Christ's message and he struggles with it throughout the film. And he is a perpetual fuck up. I think is too long though, could have used better editing.

silence
this is the only one i can remember watching so it is my number 1

Watching it now, seems kino

I'm pretty sure you posted the greatest one OP. Maybe second place goes to Rublev or Diary of A Country Priest. The Passion of Joan of Arc (also Dreyer obv) is great too

>all these movies in this thread that are about how faith is bad
