🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The Heart's Cry is an acquired taste at 5.4/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1995. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
