Saving Grace (1986)
10/10
One of the top five movies I have ever seen

Fantastic, but you need to watch it four or five time just to begin to see the real symbolism. Slow paced, beautiful crafted with characters that develop like ever so slowly; filled with video of the Vatican that you haven't seen before and video of the Italian countryside that is gorgeous snd heartbreaking, the plot develops like honey flowing from a wooden spoon. Warm. I originally thought it was cute snd kind of empty headed. It's not that at all. It's about faith and humanity and so real you can smell the scenes (hints dry dusty dirt, sweat, and pine resin.). The acting is first rate and the scenes crafted like an old Italian painting by a master. I cannot believe this is the only time I have even heard of this director znd these actors. They are really really good.
