Interesting Addition to the Bogarde Collection

Shades of Graham Greene’s Monsignor Quixote in this atypical Western film starring Dirk Bogarde and John Mills. Father Keogh (Mills) is a catholic priest who arrives in a remote Mexican village to establish a congregation, only to find that the town is under the heel of ruthless killer Anacleto (Bogarde). The two opposites collide and Anacleto comes to grudgingly admire Keogh for standing up to him and offers the priest a deal: tell him which inspires the greater good, the song (religion) or the singer (the priest). The film is long and slowly-paced and will be boring for today’s microsecond attention span audiences, but more seasoned cinephiles will probably appreciate the deadly gavotte between the atypically cast Bogarde and his enemy. Mills’ part is not well developed and the actor struggles at times to give his role some substance, but all in all an interesting addition to the Bogarde oeuvre. The Strawberry Media/ITV DVD is devoid of extras.

yippee!

I bought The Singer Not The Song for a friend of mine; a piece of music came on the radio and she said that it was from one of her favourite films but it was an old film and hadn't been able to find it. I suggested we have a look on Zavvi and within 5 minutes it was winging its way through the post. It arrived very quickly and my friend was highly delighted. Thank you very much
