Movie Reviews of The Jeweller's Shop
Movie Review: The Future Depends on Love
Summary: 5 Stars
Those are the immortal words of the mystical Jeweller in this film, played wonderfully by Burt Lancaster. Based on the international best-selling book by Pope John Paul II, this film has an excellent cast of Lancaster, Olivia Hussey and Ben Cross. It gives a realistic portrayal of the struggles and the triumphs in the marriages of three couples, showing that the the union of man & woman in marriage is that mysterious mix of freedom, love, sacrifice, and grace. It is a touching and lovely film, while still portraying the sorrows and challenges in married life. The Pope had some very positive things to say about this film. It does make one want to go read his book, which I have read, and it is a little jewel itself. This is the second to last film for the legendary Burt Lancaster.
