The Mission

One of DeNiro's best performances, this is a highly overlooked epic classic with great performances by both DeNiro and Jeromy Irons.
DeNiro is sinister as a slave Indian trader forced to look in the mirror when he's imprisoned for killing his brother in a drunken rage over a girl they both loved. Irons is a priest who's mission is to convert the Indian population in a remote village. He offers DeNiro a chance at redemption by allowing him to assist him with the converts, the very same people he sold and enslaved. The endeaver frees his soul and he finds peace with himself until the Monarchy decide not to support Irons cause and begins a full assault to enslave the Indians once again. Now DeNiro finds himself training and fighting along side the Indians, those same people he once hunted. (Sound like a recent Tom Cruise Movie anyone?).
Beautifully filmed in what looked like Peru, this film will be greatly enjoyed on a large widescreen T.V. with a background of waterfalls and crisp green jungles.
