Kelly said she was stunned to learn the big twist of the movie, which follows a cardinal, played by Ralph Fiennes, leading the process of selecting a new Pope, was that the winning candidate for the papacy is “intersex,” a male born with female gonads.
“Just made the huge mistake of watching the much-celebrated “Conclave” & it is the most disgusting anti-Catholic film I have seen in a long time,” Kelly wrote on X.
“Shame on Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci & John Lithgow for starring in it & shame on director Edward Berger (among others). ‘Spoiler:’ They make THE POPE INTERSEX! This is the big exciting twist at the end. I wish I had known so I wouldn’t have watched it.”

Kelly went on to point out that Hollywood would never dream of blaspheming any other religion besides Christianity.
“I’m disgusted. What a thing to release to streaming just in time for Christmas. They would never do this to Muslims, but Christians/Catholics are always fair game to mock/belittle/smear,” she wrote.
Conclave, a Focus Features production, is one of the “Best Picture” frontrunners at Sunday’s Golden Globes awards and is also expected to perform well when the Academy Award nominations are announced this week.
