Conclave (Edward Berger, November 1st, 2024) Movie • Page 2

This just looks like a nap movie.

 

Yeah right now on Gold Derby the top 5 ranked in their odd of winning are:

1. Ralph Fiennes - Conclave
2. Adrian Brody - The Brutalist
3. Colman Domingo - Sing Sing
4. Timothee Chalamet - A Complete Unknown
5. Daniel Craig - Queer

 

Oh and per Gold Derby this is also currently the favorite to win Best Adapted Screenplay

 

someone hasn't seen A Bigger Splash

 

or the menu

 

Or anything with Ralph Fiennes ever

 

his voldemort isn't serving imho

 

Really enjoyed this. Score and cinematography were great. Funnier than I expected at times. Wish Stanley Tucci got more screen time.

 

I finally watched this. Pretty good procedural thriller with some great cinematography.

Imagining all the old catholic ladies going to see this in their church groups horrified by the what if they elected a secret intersex person as Pope? ending lol

 

I like Breakfast Everyday's take on this "this may have a prestige Oscar Movie sheen around it, but really this is a tawdry trashy pageturner airport novel movie, but a very good well made one at that"

 

Hits digital tomorrow

 

I really enjoyed this but found that the final twist didn’t really land. They didn’t really sit with its implications at all, especially because they clearly intended on not revealing it to the world.

 

Kind of surprised the ending hasn't made this movie subject to a major "anti-woke" online brigade yet. Maybe that will come when it gets nominated and it's on a streamer.

 

i think partially because it’s been unanimous that the ending is batshit and out of nowhere. you don’t have to be anti-woke to think it doesn’t fit the movie we’ve just been watching.

 

Jonathan Pryce, Anthony Hopkins and Jude Law need to be in there

 

What a strange film. Ultimately none of the talk about competing ideologies matters because it wants to be something completely else at the end.

 

Don’t really agree with that, feels like the point is the irony in which they settle on a person that secretly none of them would have agreed on. That doesn’t invalidate the discussion that leads up to it

 

I wonder how likely it is that the character was just transgender in an earlier draft until they decided they didn't want to be on FOX every night. I don't think a lot of anti-trans people know that intersex people exist.

 

that's funny but I guess in the novel from 8 years ago they're intersex as well

 

The Catholic Church would be more concerned that a Pope is intersex instead of something like a decades-long child molestation cover-up.
