Finally watched Conclave, the film that’s adapted from the book about the process of choosing a new pope after his demise and some very questionable events that take place before and after his passing. It does have a twist at the ending and I’m not divulging any spoilers. Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, Isabella Rossellini, and John Lithgow are cast as cardinals and sister who are part of the arduous process of narrowing down the choices for the new holy father. Ralph is outstanding as the Dean, but all deliver deserving supporting performances and will garner several award nominations and I wish them the best. It did take me one and a half viewings to get to the end, but I have a good excuse (don’t start this without being fully engaged and early enough so you’re rested, I spontaneously nap, whether I like it or not, sometimes). Although this is a mystery drama, this popped into my twisted little head https://youtu.be/pvhYqeGp_Do?si=OIxrMZ4gZurpuSd8, it hasn’t got a thing to do with this film, but if you’re Catholic, practicing, non-practicing or just want to listen to something funny, click on the link. Rating: a well worn rosary, communion, utter faith in God - 3.75 ⭐️
