San Pietro

Saint Peter, a reluctant but passionate leader, from the crucifixion of Jesus to his own. The film's first half dramatizes the New Testament's "Acts": early fear, the renewal of Pentecost, Saul's conversion, the decision to baptize pagans, and the Apostles' dispersal. In the second half, an aged Peter goes to Rome to join Paul, arriving on the day of Paul's arrest. Paul's death brings a crisis to Rome's Christians and to Peter; lessons from Jesus's teachings guide his decision to stay. Events within the fictive household of Persius, a Roman aristocrat, capture the upheaval that Christian teachings bring to the Eternal City. San Pietro featuring Omar Sharif and Daniele Pecci is streaming with subscription on Prime Video, free on Freevee (Via Prime Video), and available for rent or purchase on Prime Video. It's a drama and family movie with a better than average IMDb audience rating of 6.9 (597 votes).
