In recent times, we have experienced two major films: 1) Dune: Part Two and 2) 'Cabrini’ by Angel Studios. Timothee Chalamat, Zendaya Coleman, John Lithgow, Cristiana Dell'Anna all showed up and showed out. And, while these two films are wildly different, they were similar in that they were promoted to be revolutionary films. 

Were they? Did they set a new standard for movies? 

Regarding Cabrini, did it set a new standard for movies about saints? Or, was it a “flop”, a film that, as criticized, promoted feminist propaganda?

In this episode, we uncover the significance behind Cabrini - a captivating film with profound insights. To do this, we reflect on some of its quotes, characters, and artistic brilliance. 

We hope that our insights, in the end, bring you to an appreciation for good cinema, St. Cabrini, and, above all, Jesus Christ. Tune in for an immersive experience that celebrates the creativity of Angel Studios and the power of a saints life.
