Stranger Suggests Today The Stranger Suggests

'Doubt'
This is among the holiest of holidays in the Western tradition. What better day to get thee to a movie theater and worship at the altar of Meryl Streep? She is something on the order of a god, and fittingly in this one she plays a nun—a lying, vengeful, witchy nun. Doubt has everything you want it to have: a satisfying visual texture, a cold energy, a prurient central mystery, I-fucking-hate-you dialogue, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and very few characters (i.e., lots of Streep). (See movie times, www.thestranger.com, for details.)
