  PRIEST (1994) UK




In a world of rituals, in a place of secrets, a man must choose between keeping the faith and exposing the truth.

Another good drama on gay life.  This film provoked protest among the extreme Christians in USA when Disney became the distributor for this film.  When young, good-looking Father Greg (Linus Roache) became the priest for a small town, he was not expecting his lifestyle to be a cause of future turbulence.  What was touching in this movie was not about him being a gay, but Father Greg's relationship with a little girl, who was sexually abused by her dad.  When the town lost faith in this gay priest, the little girl stood up and showed faith.  A remarkable film.

Box-Office Grossing - $4,176,932 (USA) & $1,555,800 (UK)
