    Who is the youngest Mary of them all?

    Peter Chattaway has asked himself the question Who is the youngest Mary of them all? He goes on to list all the major Jesus films that portray Mary and (where available) the ages of each actress. Peter is brilliant at this kind of stuff, due to his attention to detail, his vast knowledge, and his throughness.

    By the way, the picture is not actually from a Jesus film but the BBC's 2002 doucmentary on Mary by David McNab, and the team who put together the recent Miracles of Jesus series. Mary was played by Ghislan Roujna, one of three different Marys in the programme, and for someone of her age her acting was amazing, and very powerful.
