Knives Out

For anyone interested, I wanted to share that the newest Knives Out (in theaters now) has strong Catholic themes. They do it fairly well IMO, with only a couple of errors. I won't detail them because of spoilers, but I can say that as someone who was extremely Catholic for 30 years and extremely not Catholic for the next 15, it rang true in keeping with all of my experiences, good and bad. They miss some details of the politics of the Church (e.g. a priest decides for himself when to close down a parish, which would never happen), but there are some very satisfying scenes for someone who has been through some shit at the hands of the church. And it's fair to say that in the story, truth wins in the end. There is an impromptu speech given by Blanc when he first shows up that is just... chef's kiss If you see it you will know what I mean. I had no idea it was about any of that, but I thought it might interest some here in this group.
