Title: Great Teaching Tool
Product review: I've been using this video for years in the context of morality and social justice religious studies courses. The movie is a good representation of Dorothy Day's life though it gets rather melodramatic at the end. It does a great job illustratiing the transformation that happens in Dorothy's life and how she and Peter Maurin develop the Catholic Worker together. Another critique would be that Maruin's role in the process is minimized but it is, after all, a movie about Day, not Maurin who generally gets less credit than Day. The movie certainly opens up a lot of discussion about faith, transformation and our call to social justice.
