What price would you pay for freedom? In the exhilarating action epic FOR GREATER GLORY an impassioned group of men and women each make the decision to risk it all for family, faith and the very future of their country, as the film's adventure unfolds against the long-hidden, true story of the 1920s Cristero War ­the daring people¹s revolt that rocked 20th Century North America.

Poster Comment:

I saw this film yesterday and damn it was great. Right up my ally. Andy Garcia, Eva Longoria, Peter O'Toole.

What is interesting is that Catholic churches are promoting this movie which is in essence a very radical statement against the government when said government pushes too far. This at a time when the church in the U.S. has just released a letter on religious liberty (which comprises much more than freedom to worship- it comprises freedom of conscience.)

For those who liked braveheart, i highly recommend this film.

Here are some interesting excerpts from wikipedia page on the cristero war; such as the fact that the US military actually helped mexico kill the Catholic rebels and the klan funded the mexican govt too. the knights of columbus funded the 'terrorist' rebels (freedom fighters):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cristero_War
The Cristeros' battle cry was ¡Viva Cristo Rey! ¡Viva la Virgen de Guadalupe! (Long live Christ the King! Long live the Virgin of Guadalupe!). The rebels had scarce logistical supplies and relied heavily on the Feminine Brigades of St. Joan of Arc, raids on towns, trains and ranches in order to supply themselves with money, horses, ammunition and food. By contrast, later in the war the Calles government was supplied with arms and ammunition by the US government. In at least one battle, American pilots provided air support for the federal army against the Cristero rebels.[23] .... Knights of Columbus and the Ku Klux Klan Both American councils and mostly newly formed Mexican councils of the Knights of Columbus opposed the persecution by the Mexican state. To date, nine of those beatified or canonized were Knights. The American Knights collected more than a million dollars to assist exiles from Mexico, to continue the education of expelled seminarians, and to inform citizens of the U.S. about oppression.[73] They circulated five million leaflets educating the U.S. about the war, held hundreds of lectures and spread the news via radio.[73] In addition to fostering an informed public the order met with Calvin Coolidge to press for intervention in the oppression in Mexico. [74] In Mexico, according to Supreme Knight of Knights of Columbus Carl A. Anderson, two thirds of their Mexican Catholic councils were shut down by the Mexican government at the time. In response, the Knights of Columbus published posters and magazines placing the Cristero soldiers in positive light.[75] Investigative research in Mexican presidential documents has shown that private telegrams were sent by high-ranking members of the Ku Klux Klan in the mid-1920s to former Mexican President Plutarco Calles, who received much financial and political assistance in regulating the Catholic Church in Mexico, more specifically, a generous financial assistance of $10,000.00. The offer came when the Knights of Columbus secretly offered a group of Cristero rebels $1,000.00 of financial assistance for guns and ammunition. This was made after the fact that Calles also sent a private telegram to the Mexican Ambassador to France, Sr. Alberto José Pani Arteaga advising that the "...Catholic Church in Mexico is a political movement, and must be eliminated in order to proceed with a Socialist government free of religious hypnotism which fools the people... within one year without the sacraments, the people will forget the faith..."[76]
