St.Joseph of Cupertino

In this brief clip from the 1967 movie "More than a Miracle" starring Omar Sharif and Sophia Loren, the flying saint, Joseph of Cupertino, plays a brief but important part. St. Joseph lived from 1603 to 1663, and had literally hundreds of well documented flights, staying in the air hours at a time, and spending a considerable part of his life in the air. This movie presents an artist's imagination of what these flights might have been like. Joseph's innumerable flights witnessed by great leaders of his time, by popes, and by the common people of the towns where he lived led to his being canonized as a Saint in the Catholic church in 1753. Flights like these are recorded in cultures throughout the world and throughout history, but none are so well documented as the flights of Joseph of Cupertino. These miraculous flights show that man can indeed be the master of gravity. This is the inspiring picture of an ideal man, with which the movie "More than a Miracle" begins.
