While we must keep in mind that OTW is a movie and Malden's Fr Barry was a script, a little of that would go a long way today, I can think of so many people who would be upset that it would be a joy to behold. Keep up the good work. It is important for people to see that the life of a parish priest is a lot more than saying Mass and Hearing Confession. You guys are BUSY. <br /><br />You are in my prayersthe Egyptianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07215093180074844386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14168956.post-9387397240728926402009-08-10T21:53:03.387-04:002009-08-10T21:53:03.387-04:00KC:

Such a magnificent movie, with great performances by Brando, Steiger, Eva Marie Saint. But Malden's Fr. Barry stood out -- what a priest, and what a man! It is unfortunate that priests like him have become rare -- and more unfortunate that many, like my own pastor, are so afraid of "offending" people that they allow all sorts of stuff to happen which hurts the Church and alienates parishioners who are more interested in worshiping God than getting together to "enjoy church" on Sunday. They don't make many priests like that any more, and more's the pity. OTW is one of my all-time favourites, and I'm glad you like it as well. If the actors had done nothing else in their careers, this would have been a great testament to their talents.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
