Rating: Summary: A priest portrayed as a thinking man... Review: David Morse portrays a Philadelphia priest working long and hard at a poor, crime-ridden parish. He wonders if his work matters. He wonders whether he matters as a man or a priest.The priest works on where he fits in this world via an introspective diary. The film ends optimisticly, but not clearly with THE answer. This film has nothing to do with the current clergy scandal in the U.S. In fact, if anything, David Morse's character is attempting to act saint-like. This is a serious drama for someone who wants to think about the most profound issues of life. David Morse is his usual appealing and sympathetic actor.
