This must be one of the most touching movies I have seen in my

life.  I would rank it high up there with movies like The Bicycle Thief.  

It depicts human frailty at its best (and consequently, worst) in a

very pure and painfully real light. I think this this is definitely a movie that cannot be remade, the

priest's expressions and anxiety are too perfect to be replaced.  I

only wish I watched a good copy (mine skipped scenes and cut

dialogues).  Regardless, this movie is definitely an all-time best,

and deals with such personal issues at such a personal level that

it can never age.  It touches the soul straight on and literally takes

one's breath away.

score 10/10
