Movie Reviews

Portland Oregonian - 8/10 by Ted MaharMade on a modest budget and filmed entirely on location in Arizona, Lilies reveals Sidney Poitier as an actor with a sharp sense of humor.
The Hollywood Reporter - 8/10 by James PowersLilies of the Field is a funny, sentimental, charming and uplifting film, in which intelligence, imagination and energy are proved again to be beyond the price of any super-budget.
Orlando Sentinel - 8/10 by Crosby DayThis was a small, low-budget picture that went straight for the heart and succeeded critically as well as financially.
Empire - 6/10 by Alan MorrisonAn uplifting film that cemented the reputation of its star.
Time Out - 6/10 by Trevor JohnstonIt might be significant as an early independent movie made good, but Poitier got better when he got angrier for In the Heat of the Night four years later.
User Review - 8/10 by jamesfhallI read the novel, and this movie does not disappoint. Sydney Poitier is fantastic playing a simple man urged to build a church for a group of German nuns.
