I wrote about this film http://verdevivoverdechiaro.blogspot.com/2008/02/pilgrimage-to-eternal-city-apostle-paul.html/ , a documentary about Apostle Paul.
What information was new to me? The fact that Apostle Paul, at the time where he was a persecutor, had been the one to throw stones into one of the first martyrs, Stephen.
Then there were some descriptions of Apostle Paul's appearance, I wonder where they got them. Also there were extracts from the Epistles and from somewhere else (where from?), it seemed to me.
Another curious detail is that the place where the Apostle was killed was shown, and at this place at that time the linden trees had grown, archeologist research confirmed. That spot was precede by touching words how Aposles Peter and Paul met not far.

Apostle Paul's Faith
12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; 13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. 14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
The First Epistle to Timothy (1)
http://kingjbible.com/1_timothy/1.htm
This is a useful source http://bible.cc/, you can see different translations and some comments.
Line 13 to me seems comforting.
Line 15 ... Shows Apostle Pauls humility and penitence. By the way, this line is sometimes read in the Divine Liturgy (with some other prayers) in the Orthodox Church, just before taking the Holy Communion. And also in Russian transation the last word is 'the first'.

'Pilgrimage to the Eternal City', Apostle Paul
This documentary is amazing. It produced a great impression on me. It is the first series of the five. The first film is about Apostle Paul. Featuring Vladimir Mashkov.
From here http://russart.com/?movieplay&mid=1422 the first five minutes can be downloaded (no English translation, though).
