Doubt
Monday, July 15, 1 p.m. Set in 1964 at a Catholic church in the Bronx, New York, the film opens with the progressive-minded Father Flynn (Philip Seymour Hoffman) giving a sermon on the nature of doubt, noting that, like faith, it can be a unifying force. The next evening, Sister Aloysius Beauvier (Meryl Streep), the strict and conservative principal of the attached school, discusses the sermon with her fellow nuns. She asks if anyone has observed unusual behavior that would inspire Father Flynn to preach about doubt, and instructs them to keep their eyes open should any such behavior occur in the future. And so the film moves along, leaving the audience with its own doubt.
