Pieces of Dreams (1970)
Director: Daniel Haller
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Soapy melodrama about a priest who gives up the priesthood after meeting Hutton's long-legged and embarrassingly rich social worker divorcee. Sole surprise is the presence as director of Haller, who almost manages to erect quite another kind of film within the general skeleton of this smooth escapist vehicle by having our Father fall victim to the very 'vice' against which he is seen holding forth - 'Beware the flesh, above all beware the flesh' - in the confessional.Author: VG
