many scriptures talk abouit 39 stripes. many also believe this to be a roman tradition.

it was actually a pagan tradition. Romans beat their victims until the eyes began to roll back in their head, supposedly leaving enought strength to carry the cross.

Paul's boast also illustrates the strength he received from God to endure such treatment on multiple occasions and the joy he experienced in being allowed to suffer as did his Savior. Of course, Jesus wasn't flogged by the Jews but the Romans. Roman law had fewer qualms about either the pain or the shame, so its beatings were often much more severe. We cannot know for certain, but Christ likely received many more than 39 or 40 wounds on our behalf.Paul's boast also illustrates the strength he received from God to endure such treatment on multiple occasions and the joy he experienced in being allowed to suffer as did his Savior.

I don't think The Bible tells us exactly how many times Jesus was hit with the whip. But the Roman soldiers were experts as causing the maximum of pain with any number of torture devices. It is quite possible the skin was stripped off His body.

We are not told specifically in the Gospels how many stripes Jesus received, but in Roman law it could have been 39 to 40 stripes. it is said that scourging alone killed many persons.

Is there a movie depicting the life of Jesus from the Garden of Eden through His crucifixion?

The Garden of Eden is where the first man and woman, Adam and Eve, lived after their creation. There is no movie depicting the life of Jesus from the Garden of Eden through his crucifixion. But if you mean to ask from the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus prayed before arrested until crucifixion, I would say Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ".
