Waiting for Godot to Leave
Kevin O’Brien
Calvary. See it.
It’s got some rough language and some violence, but it’s the most serious attempt to deal with the Sexual Abuse scandal I’ve seen. It’s also about a Good Priest. And it’s about the sacrifice of Christ, played out in the life of a Good Priest. The acting, writing and directing are brilliant. The characters are mesmerizing.
It is a fully Catholic movie, deeply spiritual, but set in a very modern, realistic believable anti-christian setting.
It is the most Christian film you’re bound to see.
* And you’d never see it on EWTN (the Catholic network – even if the foul language were bleeped and the violence edited out).
* The Media Report would hate it and condemn it.
* That Donohue guy would denounce it.
* And Super-Catholic Michael Voris may very well miss the point and rail against it, if he ever sees it.
