Movie Reviews of The Cardinal

Movie Review: Memories of my youth.
Summary: 5 Stars

I remember reading The Cardinal in high school when I was in study hall. I couldn't put the book down. Then the movie! Compared to the films of that time, The Cardinal held quite true to the book, making it a "Must See". I went to see it seven times, and finding it on DVD at Amazon was beyond belief, as I had thought it was a lost film. The quality is quite good, Tom Tryon was stiffer than I remember, but played the roll well. The cast was outstanding, most of whom are gone now. Ahh! Memories.

Summary of The Cardinal

Youthful pride. Yearnings of the flesh. Moments of doubt. The courage of conviction. All enter into a dedicated American's decades-long rise from priesthood to the leadership elite of the College of Cardinals. Otto Preminger presents The Cardinal, winner of a Golden Globe Best Picture Award and nominated for six 1963 Academy Awards, including Best Director. Typical of Preminger's films, The Cardinal is packed with stars and issues. Tom Tryon, Carol Lynley, Ossie Davis, Burgess Meredith and Best Supporting Actor Oscar nominee and Golden Globe winner John Huston are players in a rich storyline embracing interfaith marriage, abortion, racism and war.
