Christ movies are en vogue again and in today's 'Faith and Film' podcast, we're taking a close look at a movie that takes its subject matter from the empty tomb after the Crucifixion - Kevin Reynolds' film 'Risen'.
It's 33AD and a Roman Tribune in Judea is tasked with finding the missing body of Jesus after uncomfortable rumours have circulated that he has risen from the dead.
Vastly experience film critic Fr Peter Malone MSC joins us in the studio to discuss 'Risen' and as a little bonus at the end, also discusses 'The Young Messiah' - a film that tells the story of a seven-year-old Jesus as he and his family depart Egypt to return home to Nazareth.
