Review of Cabrini

Cabrini (2024)
6/10
Great looking and acting, but a flawed film
19 March 2024
Giving this an 6/10 rating

The film is a look at another true tale of someone I never heard of , Francesca Cabrini, a nun on a mission to save as many as possible and the real pitfalls she faced getting stuff done. The story itself is very compelling and not at all bad, it's just that it feels shoved in your face and very, very preachy and arrogant. And it's a real problem, again another film that drags on, a bit too long.

Cristiana Dell'Anna is 100% super as Cabrini, Romana Maggiora Vergano was a joy, with a very tough role she had too play. David Morse and John Lithgow are the good foils here and, with Giancarlo Giannini, these three lend weight to the story and performances. It's very well acted, and Alejandro Monteverde does a bang up job, directing and it looks really good, the set design and costumes are top.

This is done by the same team that did 'Sound of Freedom'. By, Angel Studios, so it's what I kind of expected in some ways, but I am disappointed by the delivery is not right, Not really and 8/10 film for me.
