Episode description

A discussion of Martin Scorsese's 2016 film on Jesuit missionaries to Japan. Based on an earlier novel by Shūsaku Endō, we discuss themes of colonialism, courage before death, whether Star Wars and Spiderman actors were a good choice as priests, and whether the film's theology is snuff with that of the Church. Intro music: "Magne Pater" by Dominican Schola Cantorum. Outro music: "You Know How I Do" by Taking Back Sunday.
