This story discusses plot details from the 2024 film “Conclave.”
“Conclave” screenwriter Peter Straughan is pushing back against Megyn Kelly’s headline-grabbing criticisms of the film.
Speaking to Variety after winning a Golden Globe for the movie Sunday, Straughan dismissed Kelly’s claim that “Conclave” is “anti-Catholic.”
“I don’t think the film is anti-Catholic,” he told the outlet. “I think the core message of ‘Conclave’ is about the church always having to re-find its spiritual core, because it deals so much with power. That’s always been a careful, difficult balance.”
Noting that he’d been an altar boy in his youth, he added: “To me, that was a very central Catholic ideal that I was brought up with. I stand by it.”
