This was a great review from a fellow Catholic's perspective!! Appreciated the Pope Leo sentiments being used.
I quite liked Beau is Afraid for similar reasons to you liking Eddington but I couldn't get into any other Aster films. There's smaller indie horrors (Fear Town USA, for instance) that achieved what I think Midsommar tried to achieve, but better. Once Aster is able to tell bigger narratives, his films are greatly enhanced.
Thank you for a review that does a excellent job dealing with such touchy subject matter. I have not worked up the courage yet to watch an Aster film, but you have caught my attention enough that I might give this one a go!

I'm looking forward to giving this one a shot!
