Francesco (DVD, 2005)

Your service and quality of CD were great. I do not fault the seller. The movie was a huge disappointment! It certainly did not reflect the life of St. Francis. Whoever wrote and/or directed the movie and the actors obviously did not know a thing about the true life of St Francis or his Joy and Perfect love for Jesus Christ nor the history of that time. If anything, it was a damaging and obscene rendition of the story of St. Francis and Clare. To watch that movie was a misery when it should have been a joyful and mystical experience (as with other productions of his life like "Brother Sun, Sister Moon and another recent one called "Francesco). It was so far from the truth that I threw it in the garbage! It was a waste of money and time. Now it will be in a landfil to pollute the environment. Only thing it did was give someone a very poor movie to make.

Mickey doesn't disappoint. His acting ability (and sensitivity portraying Francis of Assisi)is a riveting,and psychological tour de force!

After watching this video, I had to look at my own life and decide what my priorities should be. Fransico gave up everything in order to follow Jesus. How much of ourselves are we willing to give up in order to help others? The story was very realist of the time period it presented, yet the message was for today.
