MOVIES WITH MY MOTHER

Alexis Norton and Laurel East

My mother and I sit down and watch a random cult classic movie, give listeners an overview and maybe a few opinions before we move on to talk about literally everything else. The gimmick is that I *love* movies and she hasn"t seen a movie in a cinema since the 90s.

MOVIES WITH MY MOTHER ·

2025/06/01

With the passing of one Pope and the installation of the new one, Mom thought we should watch a movie with a Pope. Of the list she gave me, I knew this was currently streaming. This is a blind watch for both of us and to say we were surprised it wasn't trash is an understatement. We had a meal fit for Pope Francis and talked about the very limited info on both the director and the trivia. Go find this movie...it had it's moments of being formulaic, but overall, it was an OK show.
