And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Reposting from Natter - what's the gore/blood factor?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Some of both. What movies have you found to hit your maximum level of comfort with them without exceeding it? That might help me judge if it's going to be overly so for you.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm interested in a monthly movie, msbelle. I've been defaulting to other entertainments most of the time lately, but when I do manage to watch something (ie, Conclave this weekend) I am reminded that I like watching movies and like talking about movies. Having an external motivation to watch a particular movie would be good for me, I am sure

How did you like Conclave? I thought there was some great cinematic choices in shots, but hated the ending.

I loved a *lot* of the visuals. So striking. Glad I watched it.

I was surprised how compelling the plot was, even though I had a hard time remembering which old white guy was which. Why did you hate the ending?

I thought a twist was unnecessary and made an otherwise good movie feel lessened somehow gimmicky.

Fair enough. It worked for me, and fit well with how all the candidates had something that maybe made them unfit and we (or Lawrence) have to grapple with how much that matters.
