Going My Way Page #11

Synopsis: Youthful Father Chuck O'Malley led a colorful life of sports, song, and romance before joining the Roman Catholic clergy, but his level gaze and twinkling eyes make it clear that he knows he made the right choice. After joining a parish, O'Malley's worldly knowledge helps him connect with a gang of kids looking for direction and handle the business details of the church-building fund, winning over his aging, conventional superior, Father Fitzgibbon.

- But never in our hearts.

- Good stuff, huh?

- Yes.

- Goodbye, Ted.

- Goodbye, Father.

Bye, Carol. Right man did come along?

Yes, but not past our house.

Stubborn?

- Goodbye, Mr. Haines.

- Father.

Pardon me, Mr. Haines.

I've just left the Bishop.

He told me to report to Father Fitzgibbon.

I'm taking your place. I'm the new curate!

You've little time. They're waiting

at the church to say goodbye.

All right. I've been doing you

a lot of good here.

You're gonna have a new church

after the war.

Yes, but we didn't raise enough money.

Mr. Haines is gonna give us a mortgage

to take care of the difference.

He convinced me I have a heart.

It wouldn't be a church without a mortgage.

- That's right.

- He's a wonder.

I don't know what I'm going to do

without him.

Don't know who the Bishop

is going to send in his place...

- but whoever he is...

- Father.

Congratulations to you, Father.

- The Bishop wouldn't do that to me again.

- Yes, he's done it.

Mr. Haines. Nice of you to give

that mortgage to the church.

HAINES:
Not at all.

Can't tell you how much we appreciate it.

As you know...

we're all going to miss Father O'Malley.

He was a fine man.

This is Father O'Malley,

the man who sent for you.

How do you do, Mrs. Fitzgibbon?

I've heard so much about you.

Now it's good to see you.

FITZGIBBON:
I think you'll agree that

we're all a little better for having known him.

He was always thinking of others.

And that, you know,

can make life very beautiful.

Believe me, it's what we do for others that...
