More the story of the man who established it than the College of Notre Dame in Saskatchewan, this is the depiction of Father Athol Murray, a hard-drinking, chain-smoking man who believed that education and athletics were the way to success for young men in college. He was opinionated, but he managed to take a dump and make it into a well-respected college. Uninspiring rendition of a tale told better in other movies. ~ Tana Hobart, All Movie Guide

In this engaging drama about a conflicted priest, personal desires and convictions clash with the duty to obey the Catholic Church. Father Robert Dane (David Fox) is the rector of a boy's school and has been at odds with the Church because of his views on abortion and birth control, among several other issues. His crisis of faith is exacerbated after young Steven (Gerard Lepage) joins the school. When Claire (Kyra Harper) breaks up with her boyfriend in order to start dating Steven, trouble begins to brew on campus on a large scale. While Father Dane is trying to handle this and come to grips with his own turmoil, he has to face an added pressure; he and Steven's mother were lovers before he became a priest. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

American actor Rod Steiger adopts a British accent to keep apace with his co-stars in Three into Two Won't Go. Steiger plays a prosperous salesman, married to Claire Bloom (Steiger's real-life wife at the time). While on a business trip, the salesman falls for a sexy 19-year-old hitchhiker (Judy Geeson). He thinks he's in control of his philanderous situation -- until the teenager insists upon moving in with him and his wife. Dame Peggy Ashcroft also stars as Claire Bloom's mother, whose neurotic interference only makes things messier.
