Good natured Reverend Henry Biggs finds that his marriage to choir mistress Julia is flagging, due to his constant absence caring for the deprived neighborhood they live in.

However, Dudley's arrival seems to cause even more trouble...

well depending on which scenes you're talking... at one point Julia is upset at both because they were fighting (Henry didn't like the way Dudley looks at Julia, etc.)... at one point Julia was upset at Henry because he wanted to give up control of the church so they tear it down and build a new one (but more commerical, with tennis courts, activities, kind of like a big center) without even asking her opinion even though their church is their lives. I don't know if this answers your questions? - @Saturday, June 28, 2008 8:14 AM

I think most of whitney's scenes are already on youtube. Search for TPW. For her other movies search for TBG and WTE. But it's not the full movies, just the scenes with Whitney... For the full movies, the dvds are available everywhere and they don't cost a lot, it's worth buying! - @Thursday, May 29, 2008 8:09 PM
