MONSIEUR VINCENT (1947)

Winner of an Academy Award® for Foreign Language Film

Monsieur Vincent is a compassionate and beautiful film about the remarkably selfless life of Saint Vincent de Paul (Pierre Fresnay, Grand Illusion), who devoted his life to caring for the poor and the sick, through poverty and plague. Director Maurice Cloche’s powerful and dramatic biopic reveals how St. Vincent de Paul’s unwavering commitment to the poor made him one of the greatest humanitarians in history. Monsieur Vincent was selected by the Vatican in 1995 as one of the most important religious films.
