'Conclave', the film with an ideological background about the Church far from reality

The first film that the film critic Juan Orellana analyzes in his new video for the YouTube channel of Screen 90 es Conclavethe new film by Edward Berger, the director of All quiet on the frontwinner of four Oscars. «The film, which is a thriller, recreates a fictional conclave to the election of a new Popeand there all the intrigues that surround the cardinals come out,” says Juan Orellana, director of Screen 90the digital film magazine of the Episcopal Conference.

«As a thriller, it is a film that is very well made, with a very solid and visually interesting staging. But the entire ideological background about the Church is so far from reality “It's a shame that a film so well dressed hides such a poor message,” analyzes Orellana. He also comments that “it is very aligned with fashionable cultural agendas and with dominant mentality and, in that sense, it is possible that he will go very far in his career, even for the Oscars,” concludes the film critic about Conclavewhich has already been released in theaters.

The next film that Orellana analyzes in his video for Screen 90 es Mufasa: The Lion King. «The film tells us the story of Mufasa, that is, of the father of the famous lion king. We already saw another live-action version in 2019 and now we get the prequel,” comments the critic. «The film does not offer any surprises, the animation is very good and there are very powerful visual moments. The plot and proposals are the same, it is the story of Mufasa. a movie positive, family and that we already know what it is going to give us,” says Orellana.

The next title that Juan Orellana analyzes is the Spanish film red rooster. “It tells us the story of a girl who returns to her hometown with the desire to open a cinema so that the people of the town can watch movies, and thus recover such an important social spectacle,” analyzes the critic for Screen 90. «It is a very small film in terms of budget, plot, staging… but it is endearing and interesting, very close to realitybecause he deals with the people of the town,” says Orellana.


The latest thing that Orellana analyzes is a documentary that is nominated for the Goya 2025 called The flamenco guitar of Yerai Cortésdirected by C. Tangana. «It takes us to the life of a flamenco guitarist from a musical but also a family point of view, in an interesting audiovisual investigation,” comments the critic. «It is about the world of flamenco, about art world and, in that sense, it is a very interesting contribution,” concludes the film critic in his new weekly video for Screen 90.
