A flawed American priest (Tom Tryon) scales the heights of the Roman Catholic church. |
Reviewed by Chris Tookey
|
| A big picture with a wide and very scenic variety of locations: Boston, New York, Rome, Georgia and Vienna. It won Oscar nominations for cinematography, costumes, art direction and editing. I found the religious schmaltz hard to watch. Other weaknesses are a very episodic plot, soapy dialogue, and a leading character who never comes fully alive. | |
