Richard Todd delivers a thoroughly winning performance as Peter Marshall, the Scottish-born minister who became Chaplain of the U.S. Senate. While still a boy, Peter wants only to go to sea. But as a young man he experiences a profound awakening which leaves him with the unwavering conviction that he has been called upon to do the Lord's work. He completes his religious training in the United States, where he presides over several congregations. A compelling speaker who believes religion should be fun, Marshall inspires young people to renew their interest in the church, and his ministries prosper. Eventually, he becomes pastor of the prestigious Church of the Presidents, in Washington D.C. and is asked to serve as spiritual guide for the Senate. Co-starring Jean Peters as Marshall's devoted wife, Catherine, "A Man Called Peter" is the deeply moving tale of "a man and his close friendship with God"

Summary: WAITING FOR DELIVERY
Comment: I can't give a review because I've waited over 10 days for delivery and can't find anyway to contact Amazon.... Why do companies like this make it so difficult to contact them for information?
Amazon has been good in the past, but I'm rethinking my plans to order more from them.

Summary: A Wonderful Story
Comment: This is one of those movies that will warm your heart and truly make you feel good. Ernest Hemingway once said that all true stories end in death, and this is a true story. But that aside, and even though the title character, Peter Marshall, meets his death, it is not at all sad, it is the story of how a man lived and the wonder he brought into his life and the joy of all those he touched. The performances of Richard Todd and Jean Peters are riveting and powerful. I don't believe that any other actor could have portrayed this character any better. This film shows an era in Hollywood that was remarkable, and the actors relied on talent, not effects. This movie is a must see for all ages, definitely a family picture. It is an inspiration.
