Oh dear Lord. The first answer is that she was a prostitute. Apparently the Good Christian knew the answer without even needing to read the question.
I'm not sure what movie you're asking about, so I can't really answer.
But for the record, the idea that Mary Madgalene was a prostitute came a few hundred years later. The Church Fathers engaged in frequent slander against women and against each other -- after listing all of the theological heresies of their rival Xians, they'd conclude with And furthermore, he was WOMEN FOLLOWERS!
Now they pretty much ALL had women followers, in fact most of the ministry was supported by wealthy widows. Unfortunately, Xians got started with this holier than thou stuff real early in their history. And most of us grew up thinking that Mary Magdalene was a prostitute.

What her past life was--was not specific. Then, I am not a Christian, and think the movie follows many other historical writings. Why has the Catholic Church tried so hard to downplay (or, even eradicate) her writing, called the Gospel of Mary Magdalene?
But, I do think she was the favorite of Jesus's apostles. And, easily could have been his wife. Only very strange men did not have wives in this day and time. Jewish doctrine believed very much in G-d's command to ''be fruitful and multiply''.
My religion accepts that Jesus lived, but was just a man. So, he lived a man's life.
The movie followed the life of a man and his life.

What's the title of the movie you're talking about? It's not really possible to answer this question as is because there are many movies that feature Mary Magdalene as a character.

both book and the movie portray mary magdalene as an honest woman and a true follower of Jesus (pbuh). ''the da vinci code'' denies that she was a prostitute and accuses church for fabricating that story in order to ''cover up the truth'' (and i will not comment that) but it also never mentions Jesus (pbuh) casting out demons out of her - they kinda left that qst open
hope this helps
by the way, movie sucks - book is much better (nice fiction)
