In the Power and the Glory, these warring elements are beautifully, seamlessly fused in the person of the priest and the battered Mexican state through which he wanders.
In THE POWER AND THE GLORY, the reader follows a nameless priest who is trying to stay in a state of Mexico that has exiled and/or killed all the priests after a communist take-over of the local government.
THE POWER AND THE GLORY was a big success, both commercially and critically, but it was met with anger and disapproval by the Catholic Church, which is understandable given the portrayal of the priest that Greene provides.

 Glory - DVD Movie Central   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Glory is an extraordinary film about extraordinary people who carved their names in the annals of American history…yet it took this film for many Americans to realize it.
He seemed a good choice to the powers that be for at least two reasons: he was the son of a famous abolitionist who shared his fathers views, and he displayed some signs of battle wear from his last action (a potent skirmish that opens the movie).
Glory preserves for all of us an important piece of our history, and reminds us that said history doesn’t always express itself fully in the margins of textbooks.

 The Work and the Glory Movie Review - The Work and the Glory Movie Trailer - The Boston Globe
Clearly, ''The Work and the Glory" wants to frame its argument as a plea for religious tolerance, and that's all to the good (although it might be noted that, as in most films made by the devout, there's only one religion asking to be tolerated here).
To its credit, the movie is openhearted and never sanctimonious, and for Mormons, the movie will doubtless be seen as a well-produced and welcome drama of the founding of their faith.
''The Work and the Glory" is resolutely upbeat, and it leaves off as Smith and his flock are establishing their church in Fayette, N.Y. -- not for this movie the wandering, the martyrdom, or Brigham Young.
