What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

Cabrini (2024) - Cineworld Finally got round to my second outing to the 'pictures' this year. Had narrowed it down to Copa '71 at GFT but this one won out after reading some reviews and looking at the cast with the ever reliable John L:ithgow and David Morse with the lead role of Mother Cabrini played by Christiana Dell'Anna who I knew from Gomorrah where she played Patrizia one of my favourite characters. The film is a biography about the remarkable story of Francesca Cabrini who initially had wanted the Catholic Church to allow her to set up a missionary in China at the end of the 19th Century but was persuaded to head to New York where hundreds of thousands of Italians had headed to to seek a better life. Once there with her Sisters she witnessed abject poverty and disease in the slums of New York. In the face of sexism and racism she was able to set up an orphanage and pretty basic hospital. Despite her own suffering due to a chronic lung condition she never took 'no' for an answer and using some great negotiating skills and entrepreneurial vision she was able to extend her projects to provide better healthcare and housing for the Italian immigrants. Dell'Anna is so suited to this story and really does a great job playing the woman whose amazing work was later recognised when she was canonised as Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini , the patron saint of immigrants. -
