Product Description

Choices of the Heart (1983)

Director:

Joseph Sargent

Writer:

John Pielmeier

Stars:

Melissa Gilbert, Peter Horton, Helen Hunt

Choices of the Heart (aka In December the Roses Will Bloom Again) recounts the life and death of Irish lay missionary Jean Donovan. Together with three American nuns, the 27-year-old Donovan (here played by Melissa Gilbert) was murdered in El Salvador in 1980. Constructed in a complex flashback-flashforward style, the film shows how Donovan went from a selfish, materialistic girl to a champion of human rights. Martin Sheen plays the priest who is instrumental in Donovan's turnaround. The increasing demand for the US to withdraw its support of El Salvador's military-oriented government is a secondary but vital ingredient to the full dramatic impact of this made-for-TV movie.

This true story is very moving! We should be canonizing all of the women as well as Bishop Romero. I am so glad that I purchased this movie!
