Editorial Review:

Amazon.com essential video:
Sidney Poitier won an Oscar for this endearing movie about a handyman who thinks he's just passing through a little town in New Mexico, and ends up staying awhile to build a chapel for a cluster of German-speaking nuns. The renowned actor is highly entertaining in his combative exchanges with Lilia Skala, playing a Mother Superior who survived Hitler and makes no bones about bullying the goodhearted, itinerant worker into doing more and more for her. The film has an ambling, easygoing style with several memorable moments, not least of all is Poitier leading his holy hostesses through verses of the gospel song "Amen." Lilies is directed by the late Ralph Nelson, a pioneering director of live television who also made a number of popular feature films with notable performances (Jackie Gleason in Requiem for a Heavyweight, Cary Grant in Father Goose, Cliff Robertson in Charly) in the 1960s and 1970s. --Tom Keogh

- ya got beans?
I love the whole movie, but one scene in particular, when Poitier as Homer Smith, starving because the poor Sisters have been unable to provide him with decent meals during his week of working for them, goes into the local cafe and orders a huge Sunday breakfast.

- Lillies of the Field -- a timeless classic
This wonderful vintage movie has been part of my heritage "forever". Recently I encountered a person quite important to me who didn't realized that the "Amen" song, which has become a staple of celebration in the various communities of faith that I belong to, had been popularized by this film. Therefore I purchased the DVD to give it to him, and hope that it will become as enjoyable for him as it always was for me.

- My lilies have been mowed over...
I'll start this review much like I did with `Harry and Tonto', by being completely honest with you. I personally feel that Sidney Poitier is an extremely overrated actor. I find him rather stiff and when he does get into varying displays of emotion he feels forced in my opinion. I know that this a minority opinion here, but it is mine and I stand behind it firmly. He reminds me much of Nicolas Cage, very mannered and just the type of actor who does things from the book rather than from the heart. ... Read More

- One of my favourites.
What a wonderful actor is Sidney Poiter , he could play any part. The story of the building of that chapel was excellent and how he won the Nuns over , it is in my view one of the Noir classics and I am alover of those older movies, good heart felt actors an great story lines I could watch some of my collections over and over. I knew what the story was about before I bought it and when I saw it for sale I was very pleased . To anyone who thinks Sidney is a great actor will certainly enjoy this film ... Read More

- A Charming, Touching Movie
This is one of my favorite films of all time, and I think the whole cast does a wonderful job of carrying the movie. It is the story of a group of German speaking nuns who need a miracle in order to build a church in a poor, desert town. The miracle comes in the form of an itinerant jack of all trades played by Poitier, whose faith is a little shabby around the edges. There is a lot of humor as the Mother Superior resorts to a little manipulation in order to see the church completed. Both Scala's character ... Read More
