About this item
Amazon.com
This haunting film may have had a small budget, but it has a huge heart. Noelle wears its faith on its sleeve, yet it's a faith of forgiveness and hope, not didactic rigidity. The viewer will find its gentle message lingering long after the film is over, and those of every faith will find a human (and maybe even divine) thread to connect with. The plot is simple: A struggling New England Catholic parish is on its last legs when a diocese priest arrives to take stock and prepare the pastor and his scraggly flock for the church's closing. It's Christmastime, and the pastor, Father Simeon, played with humanity by Sean Patrick Brennan, is not running a tight Yuletide ship--and may be hitting the bottle a bit much. The visiting auditor, Father Jonathan, throws up his hands at the disorganization and cut corners of the parish. Yet with his interaction with the parishioners, Father Jonathan -- played by the terrific David Wall (who also wrote and directed), a dead ringer for the young Robert Redford--is forced to confront his own feelings and judgmentalism, revisiting a mistake he made as a young man when its ghost, like Dickens', begins to revisit him. The film is never heavy-handed, and unfolds with grace and openness. Father Jonathan slowly realizes that doing things by the book doesn't always mean he's doing things by the Book--especially where forgiveness is concerned. The ending is unexpected and memorable, as is the feeling of light the viewer has watching this gem of a film. --A.T. Hurley
