IMDb Poll Board's Favorite Bible Movie
The Bible (also known as the Word of God) is the Christian faith's Holy Book telling the story of God's love and redemption of the human race through Jesus Christ. It is also history's best selling book of all-time with an estimated 5 to 7 billion copies in print. Consequently, it has also been the inspiration for many films. One of these movies, The Jesus Film (1979), claims to be the most translated and most watched film ever made.
