Yes, you are likely thinking of the 1949 film "The Miracle of the Bells," which is an adaptation of Russell Janney's novel of the same name. In this film, two down-and-out drunks during the Prohibition era, played by Fred MacMurray and Frank Sinatra, pose as priests to gain
@AmericanGwyn
why is whether the attitudes are shared by the writer relevant? a work of literature is supposed to stand on its own, not be an advertisement for how great a person the writer is
@AliahSheffield
Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick.
@whatifalthist
he gives extreme normie/boomer opinions. doesn't acknowledge the wealth transfer to the rich and says people just need to grind harder. even PBD doesn't take that stance, as much as a cheerleader for capitalism he is

the left characterized him as an angry white man angry that poor people were using gov't money to buy food, when i would argue that he was sympathetic to them. buying fudge rounds (or whatever it was) is not a healthy diet and arguably shouldn't be covered by food stamps

it's hard for me to vote for yoko because even though she was manipulative, she and john genuinely loved each other and they were a real partnership, even though she fucked up the beatles.
in 1999 my gf took part in online Q&A live chat with scott lucas from local h and she asked him "you've said that ny pizza is good for a slice, but chicago pizza is good for a meal. what do you mean?" and he replied "i don't remember that but that's so right my head is spinning"
@WeaponizedRage
this is what pisses me off about liberals. i completely understand the sentiment i *think* they're trying to express, which is that humans interfere with nature, but they're coming at it from a completely perverse perspective. virtue-signalling as usual. it's so tiresome
