Dreadful
|
| It is unlikely that the author of this script even knew a good Catholic, much less knew how to write a movie about a heroic, French priest. I've only watched half-way through the series (I can't muster the forebearance to watch any more), but I wholeheartedly disagree with the reviewers who say that the Nazis are not drawn with a heavy hand. They are all portrayed as evil and nasty without the slightest hint of complexity of character. The German military chaplain is given the greatest amount of sympathy, but it's only because he's a slobbering drunk who hates the Nazis for whom he has been drafted into service. Catholicism is about a whole lot more than social justice, but this movie producer has no grasp of what that is. If you want to watch a good film about holy, Catholic priests of World War II, I recommend the Assisi Underground and The Scarlet and the Black. |
