Monsieur Vincent

Drama111 min

Pierre Fresnay is Vincent de Paul, tracing the 17th-century priest from early hardship to the religious mission that would lead him to found two orders. As Vincent moves between poverty, church authority, and the courts of queens and princes, the film follows a public life shaped by charity, discipline, and a growing place inside France’s social hierarchy. Aimé Clariond and Jean Debucourt appear alongside Fresnay in this French historical drama, which keeps its attention on Vincent’s work among the poor and the institutions that form around him.
