Movie Reviews of The Keys of the Kingdom
Movie Review: Elegance
Summary: 5 Stars
What a beautiful film! What a fair film! What a great story! Hollywood is afraid to make movies with this much integrity and truth today. There was an elegance and a reality to this story that today's films do not know. Peck is wonderful and the Chinese characters are never patronized. They sometimes steal the scene, and for the time it was made, this is wonderful. Seminaries should use this film in the training of priest and missionaries. Hollywood should use this to train directors, actors, and writers!
Summary of The Keys of the Kingdom
When the movie begins Father Francis Chisholm (Peck) is an aging cleric who is about to be forced into retirement. Though he has apparently accomplished little during his career flashbacks reveal his enormous impact on those who knew him. As a young man Chisholm accepts the daunting challenge of running a mission in rural China. Indeed when he arrives he finds he has no church and no congregation. But over the years his honesty generosity and courage win the villagers' respect and slowly his mission prospers. Co-starring Vincent Price as a church official prone to posturing Edmund Gwenn as Chisholm's mentor and Roddy McDowall (who plays Chisholm as a boy) The Keys Of The Kingdom was written by Joseph L. Mankiewicz ("All About Eve") and Nunnally Johnson ("The Grapes of Wrath")> It is the inspiring moving story of one man's effort to serve God without any thought of personal gain or earthly reward.System Requirements:Running Time: 137 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA UPC: 024543239208 Manufacturer No: 2233920Drama DVD Video
