Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Hello flowers, hello sky: the life of St Francis of Assisi, viewed as a wimpy hippy by the unspeakably daft Zeffirelli, wandering through soft focus landscapes accompanied by the strains of Donovan. Avoid at all costs.

    Posted on Mar 04 2010 04:54 I love this film! I have watched it at least 5 or 6 times. I feel sorry for the people who wrote the negative reviews. They're much like the villains of the film.
