Review: The film “The Bells of St. Mary” – a continuation of the famous painting “Going My Way.” At this time the father Molly O’Brien appointed rector in the parish school at St. Mary’s Church. And he once again had to find a common language with the employees of the church to build relationships with children and to save the church from imminent closure. Only this time the nuns were more pliable than Fitzdzhibbon father, children are more educated, and the problems and did almost decided without his intervention. If we compare these two films, it is easy to see that his father Molly O’Brien contributed far less screen time. And no wonder, because apart from Bing Crosby in the film there is another star of the first magnitude – Ingrid Bergman. Moreover, this film focuses precisely on this, and Crosby goes by the wayside.
