Keeping the Faith


A modern romantic comedy which examines the problems facing religious leaders when it comes to love. Our two heroes, boyhood friends, have since become a rabbi and a priest. We pick up the story when their best mate from school, a girl, returns to New York on business. Underneath the cameraderie is a distinct competition for her love, since she has blossomed into a hot babe. The priest of course cannot marry, while the rabbi is under intense pressure to marry to secure his job. Which leads to many hilarious situations...

Ian Douglas: Better than average rom-com, even if it does descend into slapstick at times. It was refreshing for another religion than Catholicism to be set up for ridicule for a change. Should do well.

Maryke de Flamingh (13): Very Good, I loved it!

Marius Cronje (21): The movie was great, loved it.
