The most in-depth discussion of religion and comrades in the film I have seen, from the perspective of a priest, questions the maliciousness of religion to comrades, explains it with great love, and supports it with self-love. I especially like the editing of this film, which is full of dramatic conflict and explosiveness, and Linus Roache's acting skills and charm are brought into full play in the film. After experiencing depression and contradictions, the cry at the end is so moving, applauding for courage and singing for understanding.

The greatness of this film in that era full of discrimination inspires people to ponder, what is the nature of Christianity? Is it strict dogmatism or love and tolerance (for all men)? In the context of today's time, I don't think this is a tragedy. It is the false respect that the priest loses, but he reaps his own salvation and rebirth. @2017-01-22 23:24:31
