Show Notes
There are a number of names that are frequently used to refer to indigenous peoples of North America and individual tribes often prefer one over the other. The film Brother Bear is set in post-ice age Alaska and there is no mention of the specific tribe to which Kenai belongs. Indigenous Alaskan peoples can be referred to as Alaskan Natives, Indigenous Alaskans, Aboriginal Alaskans, or First Alaskans.
Matthew's mention of Aragorn's kingliness occurs when the Fellowship encounters The Gates of Argonath.

Episode Summary
A Catholic priest framed for murder!? Matthew comes clean with his favorite movie, a Hitchcock hidden gem. After leaving Ben in suspense on how it ends, he shares his personal experience of being on the receiving end of God's loving mercy.
Fun Fact: This was not Alfred Hitchcock's first film; it was, in fact, his 43rd, including his lost films early in his career. I Confess was in pre-production longer than any of his films, with 12 writers working on the script over the course of 8 years. It was evidently a favorite of French New Wave filmmakers.
