Rating: - Tommy Lee Jones as a priest falling in love while solving a murder...
This made-for-TV movie had an intriguing premise: Tommy Lee Jones as Father Joseph, a Catholic priest who by chance gives last rites to a dying man, the victim of a stabbing. Taken aback by the man's complete peace with himself and no anger toward his murderer, Jones embarks on a journey to find out more about the man and his religion-less "faith" to answer his own doubts about his efficacy as a priest; along the way he meets the dead man's ex-love, played by Annette O'Toole. Yes, this movie is somewhat formulaic - a murder mystery and a love story with enough forbidden fruit to go around, but it's a fun watch because Jones brings life to his roles no matter the terrain; the problem is his love interest - O'Toole seems forced as a perky artist and an independent modern woman; the chemistry could have been better with an actress more natural and less contrived in her motivations. All in all, if you're a Tommy Lee Jones fan, this is a great summer beach novel as TV fare.
