Outstanding. Simply outstanding on every level. Nightmarish black and white. The metaphor is this spins into harsh reality. This is an incredible work. Acting is top notch and on point. Characters are so real. And a catholic ex priest being the one. This film is so well done that in some ways it should have not be made at all. Think of Possum or Erasure Head a the mind fuck they delivered and haunt us to this day. The Righteous is a haunt work. Damn
Was spot on about memory lapses,
I love it!!
Excellent acting. Script bogs in spots, but still very focused. Apocalypse now! Great fun for Catholics, particularly. Guess Father Graham was mistaken about the whole symbolism thing. Loved the black and white.
Very satisfying and well done. Beautifully written, shot, and cast. This film is one that stays with you.
