Story
Rating: 4.7 out of 5
Directed by: John Michael McDonough
Cinematography by: Larry Smith (My current favourite)
- An man (unknown to the audience) tells the priest that he is going to kill him on Sunday week.
- He is given a week to get his house in order and make his piece with God.
- Priest encounters many locals during the week and each of them is dark and complicated with or without motive to kill someone.
- Not a case of who done it, but WHO IS GOING TO DO IT?
- Modern setting in a small isolated Irish Village tight nit group of people all with very different intentions and views.
- Threatened at the start in the confessional 'Father James' goes about his daily business meeting many of the townsfolk on his way each with different characteristics.
- All leading up to the climactic Sunday where James will meet his threatener or killer.
- The other element is that 'James' knows exactly who it is who is going to meet him on the beach, but the audience will not know who it is.
Theme
