Without doubt one of the most beautiful songs, with the best rendition ever. Thanks so much for posting this!
-
The irony here is that shifty Elmer Gantry is "on his way" to a new career in the racket of organized religion. A double irony is also shown in that he makes this discovery among truly decent believers in a humble country church.

These are the best scenes, without any spoken word they convey very powerful messages. (The singing is just the conduit)

@caderuse Thanks - I didn't realise segregation would have extended to churches.

@RedRebel8 He's white. This movie takes place in 1927. Society was still very much racially segregated and groups like the Ku Klux Klan were powerful. They would have good reason to be apprehensive of a random white guy coming into their congregation.

This movie and esp. this scene (and when Lancaster starts singing this wonderful gospel at the end again) still makes me shiver.
One of the best directors on earth teamed up with the best actor from those long and sadly bygone days and turned one of the best novels ever written into a movie and ... the result is just fantastic, every minute of the well over 2 hours !! :-))) Seen it a couple of times and still can´t get enough of that story and that grin !!
