Saint of 9/11 (2006)
10/10
"Knowing Father Judge was like knowing Jesus"
8 September 2006
Warning: Spoilers
This quote comes from a Fransiscan Brother for whom Father Mychal Judge was a mentor.

The people interviewed for this documentary are not the erudite, intelligent and moral but for the most part the dregs of society, the lost souls and the outcasts. Sure NYFD guys and fellow priests are there but the stories told about him in this film are mostly by drunks, addicts, the homeless, sick and the poor.

This film is a reminder of what being a Christian is actually about without the preaching and proselytizing. While 9/11 is featured at the beginning of this film and again toward the end (Father Mychal held a Mass for many NY Firefighter on September 10 from which most of the film of him as a priest is taken), the documentary is really about a man and his works.
