There, he meets a beautiful young woman with a religious passion that borders on obsession. But when the handsome priest crosses the line that separates temptation from sin, he finds himself torn between the divine and the carnal, the righteous and the unjust. Review: Some men will stop at nothing to have their ambitions reached and their lust satisfied. There is an abortion and a death. - Another of my favorite Gael Garcia Bernal movies. I wish Firestick films had commentary as DVDs do. "Padre Amaro" is more of a melodrama than a drama, but it has a lot of content about Mexican politics, church politics, and narco influence. The acting is wonderful, especially stars Gael Garcia Bernal and Ana Maria Talancon. Secondary roles also stand out, Angela Aragon as the parish priest's de facto wife, and Luisa Huerta as the religion-obsessed witch. Review: Makes you think - This is really a great movie. It's well paced, intense, and the dialogue is right on the money. After you watch the movie you start to wonder exactly how does a "man" rationalize his own sins and does that man ever consider how God will view his soul and deeds? The final scene where the young priest is content to let his transgressions be blamed on an innocent is really powerful. This film is at it's best when viewed by a group and then discussed after. A great topic is which priest has the greatest sin the one who aides rebels, the one who accepted blood money to build a hospital, the Bishop who takes money to allow others to cleanse themselves of sins, or the young priest who break his vows of celibacy because he views his job as profession? ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00008AOX5 | | Actors | Ana Claudia Talancon, Ernesto Cruz, Gael García Bernal, Sancho Gracia | | Aspect Ratio | 1.85:1 | | Best Sellers Rank | #99,396 in Movies & TV ( See Top 100 in Movies & TV ) #964 in Foreign Films (Movies & TV) #15,464 in Drama DVDs | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (344) | | Director | Carlos Carrera | | Dubbed: | English | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 2225709 | | Language | English (Dolby Digital 5.1), Spanish (Dolby Digital 5.1), Unqualified | | MPAA rating | R (Restricted) | | Media Format | Subtitled | | Number of discs | 1 | | Producers | Alfredo Ripstein, Daniel Birman Ripstein | | Product Dimensions | 7.5 x 5.5 x 0.5 inches; 3.2 ounces | | Release date | April 22, 2003 | | Run time | 1 hour and 59 minutes | | Studio | Sony Pictures Home Entertainment | | Subtitles: | English, French, Spanish | ## Product Details - **Format:** Subtitled - **Genre:** Drama - **Language:** Spanish - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 59 minutes ## Images ![The Crime of Father Amaro - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71oI7LZJmnL.jpg) ![The Crime of Father Amaro - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91ms-ZzDoKL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Some men will stop at nothing to have their ambitions reached and their lust satisfied.

This is actually really out of control for the Catholic faith. I love my faith, but there are so many children of priests out there from secret relationships. Just google it. I wonder how many were forced to have an abortion.
