5.0 out of 5 stars Time For A Change, December 15, 2001

By 

Susan Waszak (Chattanooga, Tennessee United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Time for Miracles [VHS] (VHS Tape)

In this day and age when the majority of movies consist of explosions, profanity, and lame plots, it's nice to go back a few years and enjoy a film like "A Time for Miracles." Based on the life of Elizabeth Seton, this movie encompasses the difficult aspects of doing God's Work and accepting the consequences from it. A very young Kate Mulgrew gives a believable performance as Elizabeth, although her old-age make-up lacks considerably. John Forsythe and Lorne Greene also star rounding out a rather high caliber cast for a work of this nature.

This review is from: A Time for Miracles (DVD)

This movie shows the hardship that Catholics had in the early 1800s. It shows, as well, that a determined believer can reach to one's goal of helping the public by educating their children and instilling in them the goodness that pays at the end.

This review is from: A Time for Miracles (DVD)

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie of the life of Elizabeth Ann Bayley Seton, America's first native-born saint. It is very well done and is well suited for family viewing as few films are today.

While the movie is pleasant and easy to watch, there certainly is suffering in Mother Seton's life when she is widowed while so young and later loses two of her children. She was a great example to those who knew her. Mother Seton died in 1821 at the age of 46, only sixteen years after becoming a Catholic. She was canonized on September 14, 1975.
