DVD Recommendation

    Today, I want to recommend a DVD that I watched this week. This is an older movie from back in the early 1980s called "The Scarlet and The Black". This movie stars Gregory Peck, Christopher Plummer and Sir John Gielgud. You can be pretty sure that a movie with three great actors will be good, and this movie was really good.
     This movie is based on a true story about Monsignor Hugh O'Flaherty. He worked in the Vatican during the time of World War II. The movie details the ways that he helped Allied soldiers escape from the hands of the Germans. He also used his position to help Jewish people in the city of Rome. The Gestapo official who was in charge of Rome did everything he could to stop Monsignor O'Flaherty and his work.
     I hope that you will take the time to watch this good movie. It tells about how a Christian who is committed to doing what is right can make an incredible difference. If you watch the movie, make sure to read the information right after the ending.
