Ethan Hawke is Reverend Toller, whose presence at First Reformed church earns him the respect of Mary (Amanda Seyfried) who seeks his guidance for her atheist boyfriend. The non-believer has some frightening plans that set Toller down a path to a reckoning of faith versus industry. Great acting, masterful writing and skilled direction all mark the return of Paul Schrader to world-class filmmaking.
