He comes across as a sheepish wimpy guy who can't quite make up his mind whether to fight the Nazi's or not.
Here is a man who did so many great things and ministered to so many people and it barely touched on any of it. Nothing from His writings or showed him of much depth whatsoever, but they do include some spiel about how he admired Gandhi and encouraged his seminarians to listen to him. Huh????
He ministered to prisoners for a year and a half. They had one 5 min scene where he prays a prayer with a cellmate and that's it. His "cost of discipleship" book is considered a modern classic and they included nothing from it.
If I knew nothing about him, I would Never think he made any difference whatsoever and wonder why anyone would bother to make a movie about him at all. This Does such a disservice to his impact during the war; what a waste.
