Elmer Gantry
If there was a dollar to be made—Gantry would make it … If there was a soul to be saved—Gantry would save it …
A charismatic charlatan begins a business — and eventually romantic — relationship with a roadside evangelist to sell religion to 1920s America. Based on Sinclair Lewis' novel of the same name.
