“Crosby is Father O’Malley, a swaggering and indecently rakish (he wears a tilted boater and has a catchphrase—‘Just dial O for O’Malley!’) inner-city pastor who has been assigned to a failing parish. Bergman is the prim Sister Mary Benedict, who frequently clashes with O’Malley (‘Did anyone ever tell you that you have a dishonest face?’ she snaps), while secretly nurturing feelings of admiration, and more. Nothing, of course, is expressed. It’s all in the looks and between the lines. But it’s there.” – The Times (UK)
