| The story of the simpIe peasant boy who became known as Saint Joseph of Cupertino stars accIaimed Academy Award®-winner Maximilian ScheII (1961, Best Actor, Judgment at Nuremberg) as Giuseppe Desa, thought of by many as the vilIage idiot. At a time when schoIars filled the ranks of the monastery, Giuseppe longed to be a priest, and his devotion eventuaIly won him a pIace among the Franciscans at Otranto, where he continued to struggle to meet the ideal. Only when Giuseppe is exiled to the stables does his true nature become recognized by another former peasant-turned-Bishop (played by Akim Tamiroff, Touch of EviI). The young priest's faith was so great that he began to have visions and levitated during prayer, feats which would "elevate" him to sainthood. Directed by Edward Dmytryk (The Caine Mutiny, Crossfire), written by John Fante and Joseph Petracca and featuring Ricardo MontaIban (Border lncident and TV's Fantasy lsland). |
