Do we cast aside our doubts when we’re so convinced that our actions are in the right? The premise of the story sees Sister Aloysius with conviction pursuing the ouster of Father Flynn from her school. Her single mindedness in this endeavour stemmed from a report by a young nun, Sister James. Father Flynn did explain his actions as much as he could but there were details that he was reluctant to divulge fully.

Until the end of the story, we still kept questioning who is in the right in all this drama.

Strong performances by the two leads, Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman ably supported by the two supporting actors, Amy Adams and Viola Davis give the audience an unforgettable experience.

Powerful.
