Review of The Apostle (1997) by Marnie Z — 05 May 2009
Robert Duvall did a wonderful job playing Sonny. Apparently he wrote and directed this as well. A story of a preacher who pushes religion in a way that I compare to a snake oil salesman. I don't like fire and brimstone type sermons nor do I care for religious zealots/fanatics.
This movie seemed to go on forever. Also - the end was so phony - police would never just stand around forever and wait for him to finish his sermon before arresting him.
