Thanks for all the info, nicely done. I can't stop laughing about the elderly person yelling at the end of conclave. I'm not elderly (well, maybe elderly-ish) but boy howdy, can't get over that ending.

Regarding Emilia Perez: I think the backlash started after the average movie-goers (such as me) heard about the film and it started watching it. Even if it didn't offend people with its casual depiction of organized crime, and with it obviously americanized Spanish dialogue, this film is some odd stuff and would have been a very controversial to be in consideration for Best Picture.
