Chantal: [after hearing Kevin Reevey's testimony and being accosted by an angry mob] Didn't you feel anything, listening to that testimony?
Peter Lavin: Yes, I did! I felt what a martyr I've been all my life. First to those lying little bastards, and now to you.
Chantal: You feel no guilt? No shame?
Peter Lavin: Kevin Reevey was a lonely little boy whom I befriended out of the kindness of my heart. I loved him.
Chantal: You loved him? You call THAT love?
Peter Lavin: Yes, I do.
Chantal: No! That is not loving! That is hurting! You have hurt this little boy. I could KILL YOU!
Chantal: [pause] I am going to ask this only once! Have you ever touched our children?
Peter Lavin: Why don't you ask them yourself. They're your children.
Chantal: That's right! They're MY children! They are no longer your children!

"You officiated the church, took in Millions in donations, but Now you remember nothing "

The Director for this second segment of " The Boys of St. Vincent " is John N. Smith. Sam Grana wrote this second part as well and has a bit part in the movie. Henry Czerny is Peter Lavin and Sebastian Spence plays Kevin Reevey at age 25. The story begins 15 years after the boys have grown up and traveled from St. Vincent's orphanage. Brother Lavin has left the Church and is married with two children. That's when his past catches up with him as two Canadian Police Officers knock on his door with an Arrest Warrant. Following, he and several of the former Brothers are brought up on charges of Rape and other sexual charges stemming from when they were working for the church. A formal hearing is inaugurated and all the principals involved in the sexual molestation of dozens of preteen boys are brought in for questioning. From the top down, nearly everyone who had any role of authority during the years of abuse or cover-up, either denies involvement or pretends to have no recollection of anything. The movie is a straight forward approach to the investigation with all the victims stepping forwards to accuse their rapists and those who molested them deny any wrong. Although Lavin believes he has escaped justice, his accuser is no long afraid and openly testifies against him. Lavin's wife is complete shocked with the revelation and the boys' new girls friends seek understanding of their experiences, which the men don't want to discuss. It is satisfying to watch the nervous Priests, face their accusers knowing prison terms await. Excellent Cast and Kudoes to the director and writer. ****
