you guys are too good for the west wing now???
#no i assume there really is a bunch of discourse on conclave as a Good™️ Film™️ i'm just not seeing and that's what the responses r about#but i have to admit my first response to my dash dramatically exposing that conclave is kind of trashy&politically suspect is like. yes.#i also really liked the west wing. we can sometimes enjoy a ludicrous tale of men doing pissy little psychodramas to each other#in service of an institution that deserves none of the valorization it receives from the narrative around here.#honestly i thought we all agreed that the idea of One Man Bravely Standing Up To Announce That We Shouldn't Kill Muslims was kind of a#goofy and at best deeply mid narrative climax.#but i see now that there must be depths of breathless conclave praise of which i know nothing.#box opener#like the screenplay is an almost beat-for-beat adaptation of a simply not that good airport thriller elevated by Film Techniques.#it's just reasonably fun and ''the west wing but for the papacy'' happens to be a pitch that i'm on board for.
