Priest of Love plot
"He was D.H. Lawrence. She was his Lady Chatterly. Their extraordinary romance was more tempestuous than any he wrote."
This biographical film depicts the life of the well-known English writer DH Lawrence. In addition to his literary works, his personal facets are also discussed. His special relationship with his wife, the fact that he also liked men and one of his most important books that was not allowed to appear in England for years did not always make Lawrence's life easy.

Mediocre.
Rather concise summary of the life of DH Lawrence. He was unknown to me, but I had of course heard of his most famous work. If Ian McKellen's portrayal is true, Lawrence was not only a writer, but also a boring little guy. But the people around him are also not very sympathetic and the theatrical way of directing does not help in any way. The film has made me a little bit wiser about Lawrence and that's about it.
