Movie Reviews

Common Sense Media - 10/10 by Nell MinowOutstanding story of moral courage and redemption.
User Review - 10/10 by Jeremy SA true story about an Irish Monseignor and his attempts to hide allied servicemen in Rome during WWII. Gregory Peck is superb as Hugh O'Flaherty and Christopher Plummer shines as Kappler, the German officer in charge of Rome, who tries to stop his activities! A cracking film!!!
