ITV Saturday Night Theatre: Catholics (1973)
Episode 9, Season 6
A passionate story of faith
14 September 2005 - 7 out of 9 users found this review helpful.
I found the dialog in this movie to be extremely relevant and responsive to many of the issues confronting the Anglican Communion today. The story line was simple and yet thought provoking. The mindset of the bureaucracy represented by Fr. Kinsella, with all the liberal attempts to make the church more relevant to man, seemed to miss that fact that God had already done that in Christ. This was a good movie for anyone distressed by the continued liberality of the Church.
I was deeply impressed with the passionate appeals of Fr. Manus (Cyril Cusack) in his defense of the Latin Mass and the language of the Church "in talking to God and not to just one's neighbor."
