“Entertaining Angels” is a fitting title for this film about Dorothy Day, a social activist from the 1920s and 30s. Her efforts, often undertaken alone and always stirring controversy, in battling social injustice could indeed be seen as captivating for angels. Alternatively, the title might suggest that her endeavors were aimed at uplifting the ‘angels’ at society’s lowest rungs, whom she tirelessly defended against oppression, including her involvement in the suffragette movement. Regardless of interpretation, the movie effectively portrays the real-life drama of urban streets and the personal challenges that ultimately led her to embrace Roman Catholicism and commit to aiding the impoverished.
