About When Angels Fear, from IndyRed:Divine Light Catholic High School Preparatory Seminary has more than a few problems, and they’re far more troubling than whatever troublemaker Danny Nessmith (Louie DeAnello) is up to next. From issues that stem from its residential classmates to the impending potential foreclosure on the entire building imposed by the diocese, Divine Light is suffering in a whole variety of ways. Father Toomey (Dan Lauria) has his work cut out for him, to say the very least, and his job only seems to be getting more difficult by the day by the time a young kid named Joseph Florio (Harper Frawley) enrolls. ... When Angels Fear should definitely be considered in the same breath as the noteworthy coming-of-age films like Dead Poets Society, Sleepers, and School Ties – this is ultimately really potent stuff, but also expertly infuses humor into the mix when necessary.
