Product: Luther [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - Germany ]
Rating: 5.0
Well Done Production
I am sure that exegetes on the life of Martin Luther will find plenty of historical details on which to quibble; but I found this movie both beautiful and fascinating. The cinematography was a feast for the eyes. On the intellectual side, I was intrigued by watching the evolution of a terrified law student into a timid priest and his eventual transformation into a confident scholar and reformer. A few scenes are perhaps over-played to concisely move the plot along (e.g., Alfred Molina as the Pope's champion fund raiser)...but all in all, a fine film.
