I'm astonished to see the grammatical error in the subtitles. At 37 the line reads ' I'm writing to you in the year of greace 1758' ! Now, there is a gentle little word ' grace' and there is a financially troubled little country called Greece. How on earth did this typo make it onto screen? Didn't it occur to anyone to run it past a proof reader? Still, the greatest movie score ever written remains deeply moving every time one hears it.

The Jesuits were kicked out Brasil 1754, Portugal 1759, France 1764, Spain & ALL its colonies in 1767, Parma in 1768.The bravest pope was Pope Clement XIV a Franciscan, abolished the Jesuit order in 1773[Dominus ac Redemptor] & poisoned for it. His replacement, Jesuit-trained Pius VI, was imprisoned when Napoleon's General Berthier marched into Rome in 1798 & 'tore the papal ring from his finger' then starved him to death.
Pope Pius VII re-established the Jesuits-Sollicitudo omnium ecclesiarum.

Napoleon Bonaparte wrote "winners write the history books." If you google-Jesuit Reductions of South America, on literally EVERY Roman Catholic web-page is proof it was beneficial for the 'natives.'
I lived in Buenos Aires & my older brother in Cordoba, Argentina, the latter was the largest Jesuit city of the reductions & by coincidence has the largest number of Catholic Germans in South America, even to this day.
The local gorvernments kicked out the Jesuits [briefly] what does that tell you?

The best soundtrack all the time

The music is phenomenal but the history of this movie is fictitious.
Research the JESUIT REDUCTIONS & the murder-theft-enslavement of hundreds of thousands of poor indigenous South American Indians by the Society of Jesus[Jesuits].
The evil that they brought to ALL of Latin America is their intent to write history how THEY want to be remembered...but real history shows their political institution pretending to be religious (Roman Catholicism) has murdered more people than any other in history.
