We have had the opportunity to preview the movie "For Greater Glory" twice in the last week. It is "A chronicle of the Cristeros War (1926-1929), which was touched off by a rebellion against the Mexican government's attempt to secularize the country."
This will be opening to 700 theaters on June 1st, with a rating of R for the violence portrayed.
This movie makes you think, less than 100 years ago a country effectively banned Catholicism, shot priests, and exiled Bishops. Sadly, many people will never see this movie because of the limited release, appeal and rating. Do look for it and look for parallels in the culture here in the USA today.
