Live Poll: Real Halloween: Movies About Saints

Halloween or Hallowe'en (a contraction of Hallows' Even or Hallows' Evening), also known as Allhalloween, All Hallows' Eve, or All Saints' Eve. But, the true meaning of Halloween seem to be lost over the period of time.

To celebrate Halloween, here are some popular movies about saints.

Which movie do you like the most?

 

Note: Only movies with minimum of 500 votes listed.

Fratello sole, sorella luna is posted twice.

 

FYC: Silence (2016) - fictional characters but based on real life people.

 

A Hidden Life (2019) - He has not been canonized, but he has been beatified.

 

Simón del desierto (1965) - two minutes short of a feature film, but directed by Luis Buñuel if you want to consider.

Hi Brijesh, when I make polls with title lists, I often put them in alphabetical order or chronological order so that duplicates don't happen. (I think it also helps the voter keep track more easily but duplicates do happen so easily otherwise.) 

 

'Such a good poll, btw.  : )

Thank you Pencho, I have added all suggestions.

 

Thanks Dan for English name, I would forever be finding the names otherwise. :D

 

Rubyfruit, the multiple inclusion of title keeps happening to me sometimes. I will try to use that method. Thank you. :)

My vote will go to The Passion of Joan of Arc but I'm glad to see 'Black Robe' on the list. I thought it was quite good and not widely seen. 

 

May I suggest just a few small edits to the very good and informative intro?
