I Heard The Owl Call My Name
1973, 81 minutes, Rated M
Father Brian (Tom Courtenay), a young Anglican Priest, is unaware that he is dying of leukemia when he begins a mission into the majestic solitude of British Columbia. Sharing the joys and sorrows of a once proud Indian tribe, Father Brian learns enough of life to be ready to die, peacefully and with dignity. So when, a cold and wintry evening he hears the owl call his name... he is prepared. In what is, without a doub, a simple yet powerful tale. Tom Courtnenay's stunning performance as a man doomed to die, is both touching and dramatic. This film rates as one of those rare presentations that packs a dramatic wallop that is not easily forgotten.
