Two Catholic boarding school students (Dominic Guard and Dai Bradley) embark upon a carefully calculated campaign to drive their hated headmaster (Richard Burton) insane. The boys launch their scheme by cooking up the most bizarre and depraved of imaginary sins, then recite these infractions in the Confessional. This sadistic little game gets wildly out of hand, resulting in murder. It's a toss-up as to who is the most repulsive character; the headmaster or his two charges. One of a long line of 1970s stinkers barely redeemed by the presence of Richard Burton, Absolution was not released until 1988, long after Burton's death. Hal Erickson, Rovi

This if first of all a movie not a book. I liked it and ordered it because I am crazy about Richard Burton. Whether he plays a priest, a spy, a german soldier or a roman soldier. I like Burton, period. The story is what is lacking. Not Burton. The story needs just a might more tension. Maybe we are so used to seeing wilder movies now that is why it feels like it is lacking. But also the boys they used in the movie were just not in my opinion up to Richard Burton's standards. They actually had the better parts and I think they were miscast. Again, I liked it just to see Richard.
