We join the high stakes world of cardinals and priests to discuss the shortcomings of “Conclave”. It’s an interesting film for its unique context, but we felt some disconnection to it - when it focuses on the politics of the conclave, it’s pretty fun; but in regards to the personal drama of Cardinal Lawrence, we didn’t really feel it was very interesting. Plus: it has some very TV-show-like sensibilities, and also, Miguel has some big problems with its overbearing use of the music.
