movie review - Black Robe

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 1999.01.25

About a jesuit priest making a miserable journey to the mission among the Hurons, all the way from Quebec. It's the 17th century, and the natives are restless. Excellent film. Quite grimly realistic.

Recommended.
