The Promise

Oh, dear such a low scoring rating, which is a bit unfair as the rating is given by adults for a mid-teenage film. For today's viewers it is more of a curiosity piece but it really did reflect how a significant number of people felt at the time. It was aimed at teenagers as they were settling on their religious beliefs as a choice and not as a given.

It is good see some familiar faces popping up and they must have given their time for minimal rates as they were doing it for something they believed in. Thora Hird in particular went onto do years of religious based programmes, whether comedic or serious, and her genuine interest stood her in good stead.
