But hero worship creeps in, and Evangelist Wesley is too often depicted as an 18th century version of Tough Guy James Cagney-deflating the dandies of Bath, puncturing the pomposities of the Anglican Bishop of Bristol, brushing off a highwayman, slicing through a murderous mob of Cornish fisherfolk. In general, the film lacks the dramatic effectiveness of the Lutherans' successful Martin Luther (TIME, Sept. 14), but it should be a popular and acceptable program piece...
