A Prayer for the Dying (1987)

Martin Fallon is an I.R.A. bomber who tries to blow up a troop truck, but instead kills a busload of schoolchildren. He loses heart and quits the movement and goes to London trying to leave the U.K. and start a new life. The I.R.A. wants him back (he knows too much) and local crime boss Meehan will only help him if he performs one last hit--on a rival crime boss. When Fallon performs the hit, he is seen by a Catholic priest. He refuses to kill an innocent again, and must find a way to escape the police without killing the priest who can identify him.
