Conclave (2024)

As a person of faceblind it’s hard for me to follow a movie with 2-3 identically haired/aged/raced/gendered people, but i hung in there and enjoyed this deep look at pope stuff - it’s true what everyone says, it seems like it would be boring, but if you watch it at 1.75x speed it really pulls you in.
