| Rezumat: | 1964 was a time of change, fear, uncertainty and doubt in the USA. The shifts of many ideals in America took place in the Catholic Church as well. Although intolerance has been a prominent characteristic in the history the Catholic Church, the movie director presents the clash between uncertainty and moral conviction. On the one hand, we have the classic, change-resistant, conservative, intolerant side of the Roman Catholic Church represented by Sister Aloysius and, on the other hand, we have Father Flynn who stands for its liberal, rebellious, and humane side, which reflects the changing, uncertain times. The producer does not favor any side. The idea behind the movie is to make people explore their own doubts and certainties. There is no solid evidence either way, so any conclusion is completely based on individual speculation. |
