Christian Movie | Inspirational True Story Film
"The Mission" is an Academy Award and Golden Globe winning historical drama tackles a little-known subject: the plight of South American natives living on the border between Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil in the 1750s, and the efforts of Jesuit missionaries to protect these indigenous people from being enslaved by Spanish and Portuguese colonizers. Jeremy Irons plays Father Gabriel, the idealistic leader of a Jesuit mission, and Robert De Niro plays Rodrigo Mendoza, a Spanish slave trader who renounces his profession and becomes a Jesuit himself. The late Ray McAnally is excellent as the worldly-wise Bishop Altamirano, whose decisions would ultimately decide the fate of many South American natives for centuries to come.

Can watch this over an over again and find something I missed or learn something I had not thought of. And let us not forget the amazing soundtrack which made the film an icon for the ages.

I absolutely love this movie. I've watched it at least six times. There is something in the message that is addicting.
