This is the first film I ever saw. As a child, I was taken to see this film by my school. I was about six-years-old. I will never forget it. It had a profound impression on me and I was haunted by it for years after. The little boy who played Marcelino, Pablito Calvo, was a superb actor and his smile could melt icebergs. A truly beautiful child. He was so full of innocence and goodness. It was a deeply moving and powerful film. For years afterwards I searched for the film in DVD shops but couldn't find it. I have now found it on RU-vid. It was originally in Spanish but was dubbed into English. It's a masterpiece. The superb actor, Pablito Calvo, died from a brain aneurysm at the age of 51 in 2000. I am sure he's in heaven with God. As long as I live I will never forget this wonderful, deeply moving film and it's superb child actor. Indeed, all the actors in the film were magnificent.
I can’t believe I ran across this movie! I saw this years and years ago and ordered it from a Catholic video catalog but I never saw it on RU-vid! What a gem of a movie and thank you for posting it! God bless you!
Saw this movie when I was in about sixth grade, almost 65 years ago. I have never forgot that it, and thought of it through the years. It left a big impression on me, so I was so happy to see it shown again. Thanks.
74 years ago my father gave me this story as a gift.and I read it so many tes because I really believed in the happenings and Marcellinos search for his mother...the book is now old but in mint condition and noe I read and explain it to my grandchildren... It was so good to see it on my phone after so long and I now have it copied for future use.. A gift I remain a treasure for posterity...Amen..
I believe the story, because Jesus are our savior......and a little boy so innocent and pure of heart, of course Jesus will speak to him......and grand his wishes....
I was a kid when i watched this in the 2010s, and it has probably impacted who i am as a person to this day. This movie is such a classic, i'm glad it wasn't as obscure as i thought and i was able to find it :D
Such a beautiful movie, Jesus shows Himself to children and those who are like them in their heart and soul; may you be bless Marcelino and may Jesus have pity on us all. Amen!
There is such innocence and beauty of the souls of our little people when they know God.May God help us to protect them his gift to us.Mercy on the whole world My Precious Lord.Margi S.A
Thank you so much.....GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES ABUNDANTLY....for playing this video....i remembef seeing this movie...also in black and white when i was young.
As we are all God's little children, like Marcelino, we make mistakes, cause chaos and destruction, disobey, but when we approach our Lord Jesus at the foot of the Cross, He comes, loves and forgives us, and one day, will take us home to Heaven, to be with Him and Our Mother Mary, Our Father, The Holy Spirit, and our mothers and families. Thank You Jesus, our Forgiving, Merciful, Loving Savior.
Always one of my favorite movies I believe with all my heart and soul that this was truly a miracle. Rest in peace Marcelino. And all praise and love to my Lord and my God.
Wiki: The story, revised and modernised in both the book and film, dates back to a medieval legend, one of many gathered together in a volume by Alfonso el Sabio." Others: "... inspirational story based on real-life events." Anyway, it's a very sad story, the monks were left broken-hearted. Miracles do happen great and small. The child actor was superb.
I love this movie. Once you see it you can’t help but want to see it again and again. What a wonderful story line. Thank you for showing it…made my day☝️
I had a copy on dvd but gave it to a priest friend who has now died. I don’t know what his family have done with it now. He had hundreds of dvds and I remember sorting them all out for him in alphabetical order on his shelves. It took ages! RIP Fr Jim
Me too. I love this movie. I watch even more 3 times and always have same feeling at the first time i watch it. God really love this child. The child full of happiness, love, help each other. And the first important is he knows his God
I Truly Believe from deep in my heart and soul, this a Real Miracle! May you rest in Peace Marcelino. Our Awesome God’s goodness showed Miracles in this Village, excellent movies! Oh Lord Jesus, Have Mercy on us! Amen 🙏
I have always watched San Marcelino pan y vino's story even in cartoons. He inspires me a lit to be a child at heart, even am not a perfect person. This story brings me closer to God in my true faith in HIM and to lead a simple happy life. A must see for all children and adults too ❤
The innocence of children must be preserved. Watched this movie about 40+years ago and watched it again today in 2023. Carrying The Cross on the way to Calvary, Jesus saw the women crying. He said to them, “Weep not for Me, but for your children.” OMG
This story strengthen my faith, God is always with us, blessed him who was raised by priests and was communicating with God, there is no orphan into God's God's house
This is a wonderful film. 1955 aka 'Marcelino Pan y Vino'. There was limited (expensive) DVD distribution. This is the best version; if it is a little fuzzy here, it serves to make the dubbing invisible. There was a later spanish language color remake that was never dubbed in English. I remember this as a delightful surprise discovery one christmas (or boxing day) some 40 years ago. Thank you for bring it to RU-vid.
It was my first time seeing this movie the other day, just out of curiosity, but it left me with my mouth opened, yet, I was at peace. I've seen it several times since then...with gratitude and love.
What a beautiful movie! I have no idea if it's fact or fiction but truly wish we now lived in a world where a movie like this was made. How far down our world has fallen. Lord have mercy on us and save us.
Oh Jesus, true God and true redeemer. Accidentally I have seen this movie. So inspired and it is seen by me when I was crowded with confusions and struggle in mind fully attacked by Satan with thoughts of body and it's desires though I internally cried cried to you Jesus and my beloved Mother Mary and now I got fully under the control of Jesus and Satan is driven away. Oh Christians how much blessed we are to be a Roman Catholic and that too our Lord Jesus directly taking care of us to prove that I am with you till end of the days. Jesus give me strength to be with you always and never heed to the leader of this world. Amen.
What type of world? There has always been good and bad in this world. You have to choose to follow Christ and make the choices that will allow you to live a good life. The time period has nothing to do with that. Salvation is an individual thing. You have to call on God and ask Him to save you, not us. Each of us must have our own relationship with Christ.
I saw this movie back in the late 1950's at our school St Mary's. They showed it on a screen for all the classes one year and I never forgot it. Remember being so mesmerized by it. Beautiful story
I have seen this movie by chance and loved it very much i keep seeing it still feels ery emotional and cry i am 81 years old but like a child at heart. n
Thank you so much for uploading this amazing film. I remember seeing this movie many years ago when I was really young and I wanted to see it again after all those years. So once again thank you so much for this!
102:56 Faith like a child the last find eternal life first. Matthew 18:2-4 2 He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. 3 And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
That was really sweet a problem child meets with Jesus is accepted, loved by Him and the problem child’s nature changes, Jesus brings out the best in Him. Sorta like our lives with Christ we spend time with God praying, reading the word, worshiping, talking to Jesus like a friend and we are changed.
Let us encourage on another to take care of True Widows and Orphans ,To ,TO God be the Gliry in humility to follow after Christ example. Blessings to my brothers and sisters in Christ
