Review of Cabrini

Cabrini (2024)
6/10
Lack of misticism
20 March 2024
Cabrini is fine in the sense that it tells a great story from the point of view of a social worker but disregards the catholic spirituality that made her a saint. Cabrini started her orphanages, schools, and hospitals becaise she had a profound love and relationship with God, who illuminated her to follow the gospel that is the life of Jesus Christ. Without her profound life of prayer which is comtemplation in the reason why we are born and why God created us Cabrini would of done nothing. The movie lacks telling the audience what motivated her actions, which were born from her love to God and that love which made her enter the religious life, moved her to love humanity. The movie ignores what made her a saint. Which is not her great works on earth, but her great love of the Holy Trinity: The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. One God in three different persons. For anybody to become a saint one must have a mystjcal love with God and then the social works become the fruit of such love. This movie fails to inform the inception of why a saint becomes a saint, which is the love and unity with God that leads to a pure life of such a person. It was the grace which God bestowed upon Frances Xavier Cabrini which made her do everything great she did and the movie should of focused alot more on the catholic spirituality that was everything to Cabrini's essence.
