Prêtre

a challenge to viewer. because it is one of the films who seems present all in a too honest manner. because it seems have too many themes. because it seems not convince in real sense. in fact, it is a very simple story about vulnerability, faith and courage. about instinct, pray and sufferance. about Christ and wold. nothing new. but enough to be provocative. and this is the basic virtue of it. then, the performance of Linus Roache who gives to the father Greg beautiful nuances who saves the character out of clichés. story about people in delicate situations, about painful secrets and about the impact of truth, it is difficult to see "The Priest" if you are out of the theme. to define it as a film about homosexuality and incest is too easy and far to be enough. or correct. because it is a film about vocation and responsibility, weakness and the choices changing everything. and not the young priest or the young woman are the heroes but the others. and not exactly the others but theirs reactions. a film about vulnerability. one of the most impressive. and useful. maybe, for define yourself.
