Product Description

Outline essential video
This irresistible Oscar winner from writer-director Leo McCarey (An Affair to Remember) stars Bing Crosby as a low-key, crooning priest who joins the parish of a no-nonsense but sweet old Irish man of the cloth (Barry Fitzgerald). While Bing turns local toughs into a choir, the elder priest worries over the church building fund and whether he'll get a chance to see his old mother back in Ireland before she dies. One would have to have a heart of stone not to be won over by this charmer, with a lovely ending guaranteed to make you bawl for a week. --Tom Keogh

Father O'Malley  May 14, 2010
The original priest role for Bing Crosby, he seems very comfortable with with role. Barry Fitzgerald is a scene-stealer. The song "Too-Rah-Loo-Rah-Loo" is just beautiful, almost makes me wish I was Irish!
 
Gotta love Bing!!!  May 9, 2010
This movie is so sweet. It goes right along with the Bells of St. Mary. If you love Bing Crosby then you will love his sultry voice singing the Irish Lullaby. Great movie, great quality.
 
We watched it over and over. Great film.  Mar 17, 2010
A great movie featuring the song "Would you like to swing on a Star." My family loved it and watched it over and over for like a month. Now we still pull it out every now and again.
 
Corn Syrup  Jan 24, 2010
Impossible to watch this film through same eyes that made it one (if not THE) biggest blockbuster of 1944, but evidently still strikes a chord with people who love feel-good nostalgia like The Sound Of Music. Others will find it rough going indeed (Sound of Music at least had magnificent color location photography and boasted a well-known score) and wonder how this now-corny museum piece possibly scored multiple Oscars for Best Picture, Director, Actor, Supporting Actor, etc.

Even by standards of the day, strictly routine studio schmaltz but talents of Crosby (in the sort of role he could do in his sleep) and Fitzgerald have bolstered it into something everyone interested in Oscar history should probably see once, if only to ponder what was going on in voters' minds. Speaks to the charisma of the two leads that they can overcome episodic script, a handful of predictably tedious subplots that include boring outta-left-field interludes with young priest's former flame (Rise Stevens, who brings show to a halt with an opera number), a star-crossed war-time romance between two charm-free supporting players and the antics of a juvenile delinquent boys' choir. (Oddly, the Oscar-winning Swingin' On A Star, meanwhile, is tossed off almost as a throw-away number.) Yes, they sure don't make them like this any more. . .thank God.
 
one of the greats  Jan 10, 2010
This is definitely one of the greats. I showed it to my family on Christmas eve, and even though they saw it many times, they were thrilled to see it again. This movie is a classic; it's "Father O'Malley" at his best (along with "Bells of St. Mary's"). It is so wonderful to see a wholesome, inspiring movie that makes you feel enriched after viewing it. I highly recommend this movie especially for those who value heart-warming, family entertainment.
