Some positive messages are contained in this gentle film. An inexperienced single man, believing he will wed one of the Americans, visits a madam in order to, well, get experience. He later tells a friend, however, that he didn’t do anything. Realizing he would not be in love with the prostitute, he found it wrong to be there. That’s a pretty strong statement about the sanctity of marriage. The film also showcases a reverence for God and presents a respectful portrait of the local priest (a rarity in films these days). Alas, it does contain some language inappropriate for family viewing. In an age where objectionable language is no longer objectionable, the Bible says “For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.” This is why we cannot condone films that may have some qualities, but at the same time profane the Creator’s name. Matthew 12:34
