Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Great Movie
This movie is very well done, not long enough and it can show today's film industry what a good movie is about. It teaches about different virtues and difficulties that come with the decision of following Christ. Today's society is carachterized by the absence of God even though most people say they belive in God, we don't act like we do.
The main actor is pretty good and so are the rest. Is well directed and the photograpy is excellet.
Rating: - A WORTHY ADDITION FOR FILM COLLECTORS!
I remember seeing this film 40 years ago. It was
a classic then, its a classic now. A film for any
religion!
Rating: - The Cardinal, an excellent film

This film is very modern with the issues it addresses (abortion, racism, etc.) and the characters are not one-sided. Tom Tyron plays a very human Priest who struggles at times to be obedient as a Priest yet his fidelity and orthodoxy carry him through, a testament to his character.
