I won't say Russell Crowe was born to play this role but he's aged into it quite well. He seamlessly weaves merriment and gravity into the most colorful priest .He certainly relishes this most interesting role.
I didn't however expect to enjoy the story as much as I did. Interesting and entertaining I was never bored. I also liked the partership that developed between the older and younger priest (played by Daniel Zovatto)who really grew into the role as the younger preist . I hope there is a sequel .
I also plan to check out Gabriele Amorth's books the movie has intrigued me to learn more about the subject and the Father Amorth himself.
