MARTIN

LUTHER

The PBS

"Empires Series”

Although not a usual site for Biblically accurate material, PBS's Empires Series production on Martin Luther is an incredibly accurate and compelling biography about Luther. Moreover, it reveals a very objective view on Roman Catholicism and the beginning of the Reformation. This documentary is in two parts; the following links will take you to the PBS Video site. (This video is also available as a DVD from PBS and other retailers.)

LUTHER

The Movie

This is a theatrical production that was released in 2003; it is rated PG-13 because of some graphic images: namely, depictions of the civil revolts that occurred during the Reformation. It stars Joseph Fiennes, Alfred Molina and Sir Peter Ustinov in his last performance.

Although many movies have been made regarding the life and work of Martin Luther, this release is perhaps the most stirring biography about him. The film does take some artistic license through its dramatization, but it is yet entirely accurate in the essence of Luther and the Reformation. Like the PBS "Empires" episode on Luther, this biographical movie takes on the critical issues of Roman Catholic deceptions in light of Biblical Truth. "Luther" the movie (DVD) is available from various Christian and secular retailers.
