Priest (1994) starring Linus Roache, Tom Wilkinson. Young priest named Father Greg (Roache) has trouble dealing with problems of the inner city, not to mention his own secret homosexuality. You might recognize Roache from his role on "Law & Order," the TV show (now canceled). Fr. Greg's first conflict comes about when a girl named Lisa tells him in the confessional that her father is sexually abusing her. How can Fr. Greg help her, without breaking the sacred trust of the confessional? Turns out, he can't. He can scarcely help himself. The scenes of two men making love to each other didn't do much for me, but the film's ending was still moving. The captions are very good. Grade: B
