Description: Friends, "The Power of the Dog" is one of the most talked-about and decorated films of the past year, garnering twelve Oscar nominations, including best picture, best actor, best-supporting actor, best-supporting actress, and best director. It is indeed a fine film to look at, the acting is uniformly marvelous, and the story is brooding and tautly rendered. At the same time, it’s a movie that leaves the viewer (or at least this particular viewer) a bit confused, and more than a little uneasy. Many have in fact debated what exactly was going on as the picture came to its conclusion. "The Power of the Dog" is a meditation on family, friendship, repressed sexuality, and, above all, the way that powerful people come to manipulate and abuse one another. It is precisely the manner in which Jane Campion, the crafty director, presents this last theme that I analyze in my most recent video. ———VIDEO LINKS——— Bishop Barron on "The Dark Knight Rises": youtu.be/XkOTTAMmfyM Bishop Barron on "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood": youtu.be/Y_vc44IwiBY Bishop Barron on "The Departed": youtu.be/FfRqWdRUnxE Bishop Barron on "Fargo": youtu.be/HF8Tm7luxx4 ———WATCH——— Subscribe to this Channel: bit.ly/31LV1sn Word on Fire Institute Channel: bit.ly/2voBZMD Word on Fire en Español Channel: bit.ly/2uFowjl ———WORD ON FIRE——— Word on Fire: wordonfire.org FREE Daily Gospel Reflections (English or Español): dailycatholicgospel.com ———WORD ON FIRE INSTITUTE——— Join Bishop Barron and over 20,000 evangelists inside the Word on Fire Institute at wordonfire.institute ———SOCIAL MEDIA——— Bishop Barron Instagram: bit.ly/2Sn2XgD Bishop Barron Facebook: bit.ly/2Sltef5 Bishop Barron Twitter: bit.ly/2Hkz6yQ Word on Fire Instagram: bit.ly/39sGNyZ Word on Fire Facebook: bit.ly/2HmpPpW Word on Fire Twitter: bit.ly/2UKO49h Word on Fire en Español Instagram: bit.ly/38mqofD Word on Fire en Español Facebook: bit.ly/2SlthaL Word on Fire en Español Twitter: bit.ly/38n3VPt ———SUPPORT WORD ON FIRE——— Donate: wordonfire.org/donate Word on Fire Store: store.wordonfire.org Pray: bit.ly/2vqU7Ft
