CGiii Comment

This is indeed an early offering as to the paedophilic nature of priests - definitely controversial for its time.

Unfortunately, it has been surpassed by bigger and better productions.

Worthy of a look.

The(ir) Blurb...

A Roman Catholic teenage boy in Nova Scotia during the 1930s faces various growing-up problems: Should he become a priest? What should he do about the murder he witnessed, committed by a local cop and upstanding parishioner? And how far should he go with his girl friend, who happens to be the murderer's daughter?
