When do subtitles start in The Passion of the Christ (2004)?

Here's a question from the "you asked, I answer" pile: When do subtitles start in The Passion of the Christ (2004)? 

This really depends on which version you're watching, but there are subtitles in the opening scene where Jesus is in the Garden of Gethsemane. Sometimes people are caught out because the first words Jesus speaks aren't subtitled. So actually the first line which appear in the subtitles is just "Peter".

This is when (going by the timer/time bar) the various version have this line:

  - UK 1-disc DVD (2004) – 0h 2m 15s

  - UK 2-disc Blu-ray (2010) – 0h 2m 22s

  - Amazon Prime streaming – 0h 2m 22s

I'll look to add details from more versions if I find them. If you have access to a different version of the film I'd be grateful if you'd email me or drop something in the comments to let me know and I'll update the post.

If you're interested in Jesus films like this then you might enjoy my book "100 Bible Films" which not only covers around 50 Jesus films, but another 50 that cover the rest of the Bible, going right back to the first still-in-existence Jesus film from 1898.
