    I liked learning about Father Flanagan. Im a personal friend of Marilyn (Winkie) Fordney Havasi, and have known her story for many years. It was wonderful to learn about the man who helped her family. Also, Ive never been to Nebraska, and to see Boys Town on the big screen was wonderful.

    This movie was so well done. In depth story of Father Flanagan's life. I learned so much about him that I didn't know before. A true Saint in my view. I will be praying for his canonization.

    We need more people to think, act and care like Father Flanagan did and this would be a better country.

    I learned that Father had the ear oft US Presidents. Additionally, it was new to me that he intervened with Japanese who were interned in camps.

    I did not know the extent of effort to build Boys Town. It would have been interesting to see how the major fundraising took place. Fr Flanigan certainly seems to warrant serious sainthood consideration!

    I discovered what a wonderful caring priest Father Flanagan was and lots of things that I did not know about him and what he did for children all over the world.
