VCI Entertainment presents “MARTIN LUTHER” (8 May 1953) (103 mins/B&W) (Fully Restored/Dolby Digitally Remastered) — Narrator John Wiggin begins the film with a scholarly overview of the place and time of the life of Martin Luther. He points out that power is divided between the Emperor and the church. To set the stage for the presentation of Luther’s conflict with the church of his day he states, “the church had largely forgotten the mercies of God; and, instead, it emphasized God’s implacable judgments.”

Our story and plot, the time frame of the film is 1507-1530 from the time Luther entered the Augustinian monastery in Erfurt to the presentation of the Augsburg Confession. It recounts Martin Luther’s struggle to find God’s mercy, his discovery of the gospel in Romans 1:17, his posting of his Ninety-five theses, and the controversy that followed which led to his separation from the church of Rome. It shows Luther’s resistance to the forces of radicalism, and his work to establish and maintain the evangelical movement of his day. The dramatic highlight is his “Here I Stand” speech before the 1521 Diet of Worms.
However the film is pretty faithful account of his conflict with the organized Church, and how it led to the creation of Protestantism (and, in particular, Lutheranism). It gave Niall MacGinnis the best straight dramatic lead role in his career —- MacGinnis always was a superior supporting actor in small parts, so it is worth noting that when he was given an important part like Luther he gave it his all.

Special footnote, the performances in the film are excellent, as are the scenery and costumes, shown in stark black and white photography. The producers spared no expense to present the wide range of political and religious figures with whom Luther interacted. The dialogs are poignant and always clearly understandable — A must see film that gives you thought provoking questions.
