From Quiz Doubt

Answer: Doubt

Father Flynn opens his sermon with a question: "What do you do when you're not sure?" This line also opens the 2004 John Patrick Shanley play ("Doubt: A Parable") on which this Miramax film is based, although it isn't quite the first line of the movie. (That honor goes to the mother of one of the altar boys, telling him to get out of bed.) The priest goes on to discuss doubt, especially as it relates to faith in God. He assures the congregation that doubt can be as strong a bond as faith, an inclusive message which seems to comfort several of the parishioners. Rather less comforting is the presence of Sister Aloysius, who roams the church's aisles during the sermon and not-very-gently persuades the teenage worshippers to sit up straight and stop talking.
