Christian Spaghetti Western
18 August 2019
Mexican leading man Humberto Almazon temporarily came out of retirement from acting (he had taken the cloth in reality during the 60's) to play a tousle-haired, moon-faced trainee priest going through various disguises to evade the soldiers seeking him here and seeking him there on behalf of anti-clerical Generalissimo Ernest Borgnine in 1917 in this US-Spanish hybrid of 'The Sound of Music' and 'The Cross and the Switchblade'.

The post-syncing makes it feel like a spaghetti western, although Hollywood veteran Arthur Lubin - whose swan song this marked - like Irving Rapper a few years later on 'Born Again' is incongruously at the helm.
