This was a second viewing for me of Ford's retelling of a Graham Greene novel. It's about a fugitive priest in Mexico, not to be confused with the later tv series and movie based on that. It starts very slowly, but it's a solid piece of work. Henry Fonda is the beleaguered priest and Ward Bond and Deloris Del Rio head up a list of excellent character actors.
The religious message grates a bit, but definitely worth a viewing. I stick with my original 6 rating.
