Mary Magdalene

Mary Magdalene

Mary Magdalene is a 1914 silent film that costars Arthur Maude and Constance Crawley and is loosely based on the 1910 play of the same name by Belgian playwright Maurice Maeterlinck.

Plot

The story takes place in Capernaum and Jerusalem during the two years leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, and follows the lives of Judas Iscariot (Arthur Maude) and Mary Magdalene (Constance Crawley), who indulge in their own selfish pursuits and care little about the plights of others. But when Mary hears Jesus preach an outdoor sermon, she learns the power of Christ's love and abandons her reckless ways to become one of his most ardent followers.
