Amazing!Oct 23, 2008 The feeling that I had after viewing this video was one of amazement. I sat on the living room floor for about 5 min. after it was over. My wife asked if I was ok? Which I was, but amazed.
There are Very few movies that impact me in such an emotional way. Another that comes to mind is the Passion of the Christ

Childhood Religious ApparitionsAug 12, 2007 This Spanish film was made in 1955. It is a dubbed version, and as with older dubbed foreign films it can be a little distracting. However the content of the film is an innocent and sweet telling of the story of an orphaned boy raised by monks in a monastery in Spain in the early part of the 19th century. The film depicts a series of religious apparition experiences that lead to an unexpected ending.
The film is not filled with spiritual experiences or religious propaganda. It tells a story about the life of a little boy. I recommend this film. It is a must see for people who are interested in children's religious apparition experiences.

Just as I remembered itAug 10, 2007 I was going to school at Holy Cross Elementary (Dover, Del), during the early 60's and when I saw this movie, it really shook me up. I'm a softy at heart and I must admit I cried towards the end of the movie.
It was great to see this classic.
