Review of The Island (2007) by Juli N — 18 Feb 2014
An unusual tale about a monk whom could heal the sick and had the gift of prophecy! He exhibited the strange behaviors of Fools for Christ and often challenged/pranked his fellow monks in an attempt to make them become better monks! While quirky and humorous at times the story kept faith, sin and redemption in the forefront!
The film had a slow deliberate pace! The story itself was mesmerizing due in large part to Father Anatoly being such a colorful character! The man whom played Anatoly (Pyotr Mamonov) did a superb job in bringing Father Anatoly to life on the big screen!
