Review of Calvary (2014) by Orukayu — 22 Jan 2023
It's an extremely dramatic film that was made in 2014 that deeply affected me. The acting is magnificent. Brendan Gleeson impressed me. In the film, a confessor tells the father of a small town that he will commit a resounding murder and will kill the father a week later. The Father does not see the person, and his mood changes from day to day. He can't decide what to do. On the other hand, he realizes that he doesn't really know the people he thought he knew in the town. He questions his own life.
I fell in love with the song Subo by Los Chiriguanos, made in 1968, played during the casting after the end of the movie. Also, Patrick Cassidy's song Say Your Prayers, played in the finale, is still impressive.
The music is good, the acting is good and the subject is interesting. What else?
There are scenes of sexuality and nudity in the movie.
