The Good Shepherd · reception & legacy

How The Good Shepherd has been received, argued over, and remembered.
Where it stands
An obscure direct-to-video Canadian thriller that mostly surfaces when people confuse it with Robert De Niro's 2006 spy epic of the same name.
★ Did you know? The film was retitled 'The Confessor' for its US release — partly avoiding confusion with the bigger-budget 2006 De Niro/Matt Damon film called The Good Shepherd.
