Even though it will be debated as to whether or not Mel Gibson's The Passion of The Christ will win over any converts, no one can argue that it didn't make people want to repent:

A controversial movie led a man to confess to killing his girlfriend, Fort Bend County deputies told News2Houston Thursday. ... Authorities said that Leach confessed to the crime after seeing Mel Gibson's controversial movie, "The Passion of The Christ" and he decided to seek redemption. He told investigators he staged the killing to look like a suicide.

Could it be just that simple? I don't know.

3/30: Is this a new trend? A burglar gives Confession 2 and a neo-Nazi terrorist gives Confession 3.
