Witty, heartwarming and utterly charming, The Bells of Saint Mary’s delivers all the entertainment of its predecessor, the Academy Award-winning Best Picture (1944), Going My Way.
Bing Crosby recreates his Oscar-winning (Best Actor) role as parish priest Father O’Malley, who is sent to revive the financially ailing parochial school. The easy-going O’Malley is immediately at odds with no-nonsense Sister Benedict (Ingrid Bergman in a Golden Globe-winning performance) on how to educate children. Beyond their delightful battle of wits lies a bigger problem. The skinflint businessman next door (Henry Travers, It’s A Wonderful Life) wants St. Mary’s condemned. Only a miracle can save it now.
How a devilish situation finds a heavenly solution remains to be seen in this captivating family classic that was nominated for eight Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Actress.
