A Man Called Peter

Considered one of the finest films to deal with religion. A Man Called Peter is the compelling story of Scottish minister Peter Marshall, who as a young man, traveled to Washington, D.C. and became the pastor of the Church of the Presidents. By the time of his death, he was the chaplain to the Senate and a greatly respected man. Although he was a Presbyterian, the wisdom and sincerity of his sermons appealed to people of all faiths. Featuring outstanding performances by Richard Todd and Jean Peters, A Man Called Peter is also a touching love story, and received an Oscar nomination for Best Cinematography.
