E98: Why Cabrini Is A Must See The Lila Rose Podcast

- Philosophie
Modern movies with “strong female leads” often emphasize a character’s physical strength or appearance and their ability to discover themselves and take on the world. I got the chance to see Cabrini, which is about a celibate Catholic Religious sister serving the poorest of the poor Italian immigrants in New York — and being a true mother to the orphaned and lost. Today I give my take on how this film shines in revealing the apex of femininity through displaying the counter cultural and heroic work of St. Francis Xavier Cabrini. I share some of my thoughts on the production of the film, compare its themes juxtaposed to other recent films with strong female leads like Barbie, and take you through some of my favorite scenes from the film. I also share my thoughts on what I would have loved to have seen more in the film.
