Léon Morin, Priest Audience Reviews

MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
