GUYS GUYS GUYS

MERCY WORKER MOVIE

Description

"Mother Teresa and Me” tells the story of Kavita, a young woman who finds herself with an unexpected pregnancy. Battling whether or not to get an abortion, she returns to her hometown in India where her now very old nanny shares the story of Mother Teresa’s first days working in the streets of Calcutta. Learning how Mother Teresa faced many doubts after no longer being able to hear the voice of Jesus, Kavita is inspired.

I highly encourage reading the whole article! I'M SO EXCITED!!

Miguel O'Hara being of Mexican and Irish descent is, like, yeah, of COURSE he became a control freak who is projecting his issues onto everyone else because he isn't able to forgive himself for a mistake he made and the regret is eating him alive. Catholic Guilt is like that.

#I know it's more serious than that but lmao let me make my Catholic jokes #ATSV spoilers #Miguel O'Hara #Across the Spider-Verse #Across the Spiderverse #What the fuck are people tagging this movie tbh #That question is rhetorical. Mostly.

So I went and saw Father Stu

So I'm going to write something of a little review of it, because I slept like garbage last night thinking about it. However, I'll just say my standards for food and movies are not very high. Also I couldn't hear a good third of the dialogue because I have auditory processing difficulties and the theater I went to was shit.

So it is a true story about a real priest, who was a Montana boxer and died of body myositis in 2014 after he converted to Roman Catholicism for his then girlfriend. I think the fact that it was a true story really makes the movie. If it wasn't a true story, it would just be kind of oscar-bait about an asshole (who swears so, so much) finding redemption in the Church. Which is fine, I guess, but there's so much more to the story, and the man behind it.

I'll start by saying the soundtrack was fantastic. The aesthetic, beautiful. It was like Last of Us southern gothic guitar plucking meets Johnny Cash, Elvis, Conway, and Dolly. *chefs kiss* I can't find the tracklist ANYWHERE tho and it's driving me crazy. I don't know anything about y'all's beef with Mark Wahlburg or Mel Gibson, the only movie I've seen either of them in prior to this was Braveheart lol. I thought they were good in the movie. Big respect for Wahlburg for actually financing the movie himself, I heard that's just not something you do in the movie industry. Also he actually put on like 25lbs to play Stu accurately and that's wild. The effect was striking.

The character development and just the characterizations in general I think were also a high point in the movie. Nobody was set up as perfect, to be put on a pedestal. Stu fought and drank and swore and drove drunk and manipulated prior to his conversion. The woman he stalked to church (yes yes problematic dick move) wasn't portrayed as perfect, goodness knows the Catholic Church wasn't, and I think that's right. They were all real people, who hurt when hurt and tried and protect the wrong things and misplaced priorities sometimes. That's refreshing to see in the theater, in this age of Marvel and Disney.

I think there were some parts that were a little much, like definitely oscar-bait-y, like one scene has him kneeling and praying in the sanctuary of his LA parish in the middle of the night praying and crying and yelling, like idk it's hard for me to take a scene like that seriously in a film. I get what it was trying to accomplish, of course, to show Stu's wrestling with God in the trial he's having to face in life, and that's significant, but it just fell a bit flat to me there. I couldn't tell you why though.

Now I am not catholic myself (yet), I'm a...baptist? Ish. But I've got catholic friends and I've done my homework, and as far as I've been able to tell, the theology was also good and sound. They got the important bits right as far as the gospel, the office of the priesthood, confession, and stuff like that. That's rare. We also get to see Stu struggling with those various concepts before he actually comes to understand them, which is great. I'm so encouraged to be seeing a faith-based film in theaters that's actually real and kind of relatable and fun to see, just like any other movie. Like the Chosen. Fabulous.

Overall, I enjoyed it. I'd see it again (with subtitles).

underrated stephen maturin thing is when sailors get convinced the ship is haunted and/or cursed and he goes and performs exorcisms to calm them down. he does it at least twice and i think it’s a really funny thing to add to his CV. physician, naturalist, polyglot, cryptographer, cellist, sometime exorcist. truly who is doing it like him.

#put that man in a horror movie he wouldn’t even notice #There’s a joke to be made here with the exorcist book/movie but I can’t find it #more seriously I think he’s got a really interesting relationship with his faith #i wish it had been elaborated on more #the way he’s more visibly religious - visibly Catholic - after Surgeon’s Mate gets to me #it’s an integral part of who he is #and clearly has shaped him significantly in ways he’s not fully aware of (though admittedly that goes for a lot of things with him lol)#stephen maturin #aubreyad
