Friars and Film

A discussion of Carl Theodor Dreyer's 1928 film on the final days of medieval Europe's best-documented female saint. Involves: wide eyes, wicked theologians, and slowly panning cameras. Intro music: "Magne Pater" by Dominican Schola Cantorum. Outro music: "Poets and Mirros" by Hope & Justin.

A discussion of Roberto Rossellini's 1952 film and its not-so-stellar depiction of the saint from Assisi. Notwithstanding, of course, a few good takeaways. Intro music: "Magne Pater" by Dominican Schola Cantorum. Outro music from the film.
