Favorite Fictional Priest?

Recommended Posts

Who is your favorite fictional priest or other religious?

Mine are: Fr. Brown, Fr. Mulcahey from M*A*S*H, Fr. Peter Lonergan from The Quiet Man, Brother Cadfael....

That's all I can think of right now.

Fun question...

The old, white bearded priest (dominican I think), who rode his bike around the mission in Africa and then was martyred in "A Nun's Story" and then also the priest who lived on the leper's island to care for them and so joyfully received leprosy also in "A Nun's Story".

The priest who converts Robert DiNeiro in The Mission is pretty cool.

Oh Yeah! Jeremy Irons is excellent as Fr. Gabriel I also liked him as Aramis in Man in the Iron Mask.

Brother Cadfael isn't a priest, I don't believe. He joined the Abbey in Shrewsbury after a career in the crusades and was possibly considered too old for preparation for ordination.

Love and prayers,
