Could Have Been a Contender
3 October 2023
Bless Me Father the opening used at Cathoiic confessions. Actually, it is Bless me Father, for I have sinned and it has been ??? Since my last confession. Mine was over fifty years ago.

The opening scenes of a church in New Jersey are breathtaking. The murals are just spectacular. A troubled young man named Vinny is met by his parish priest and he enters the confessional box to seek forgiveness for his multitude of sins and the list is a long one.

Flashbacks are used and we see frequent drug use and bloody murders along the way. Vinny's mom is deep in debt due to her father's medical bills and her son uses illegal means to rescue her.

A strip club is repeatedly used as a meeting place for the mobsters, and for some reason the strippers are never topless but twirl around strip poles in thongs.

The ending made no sense at all and it could have been a contender.
