VHS Movie Reviews of The Assisi Underground [VHS]
Movie Review: When will The Assisi Underground be released on DVD?
Summary: 4 Stars
"The Assisi Underground" is a 1984 feature that stars Ben Cross as a determined and courageous Catholic priest who risks his own life to rescue thousands of persecuted Jews fleeing the Nazis in WW II Italy. If I'm not mistaken, this is a fact-based story and also stars James Mason and Maximillian Schell. Another movie that also dealt with a Catholic priest aiding Jews and POWs during WW II in Italy was 1983's "The Scarlet and the Black" starring Gregory Peck as a heroic Vatican priest and Christopher Plummer as the ruthless Nazi officer-in-charge.
I watched this on television many years ago and found it a riveting, albeit slow-moving feature. I do wish they would reissue this on DVD so I can add it to my collection of Holocaust-themed dramas.
