Ex umbris et imaginibus in veritatem
A portrait by Sean O'Faolain with Robert Harris as John Henry Newman
Produced by Douglas Cleverdon
We go from shadows and imaginings to the truth.' Sean O'Faolain takes as his subject the years of happy disputation and high hopes, the years of triumph and of certainty, that ended with Newman's conversion to Roman Catholicism; after which for many years he found himself deserted by his old friends and snubbed by his superiors.
