Is to specify Jesus Christ (whose name was removed from the traditional Latin table blessing that is the film’s one spoken prayer) automatically to “preach to the choir”?
I had to look up what he's talking about here. They shortened the whole prayer, not just removed or changed a word as he's suggesting. Apparently they only said "Bless us, O Lord, and these Thy gifts. Amen."
As it was in Latin, the chances of even 0.1% of the audience noticing is slim.

I cannot speak to the new movie, however we did watch an older film about her on EWTN (yes, I know, but lets leave that aside and just look at this movie.) Throughout this older film (and in this short clip below), Mother Cabrini consistently speaks of her devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I thought it was excellent and had none of the feminist claptrap. She was always respectful to Pope Leo XIII, her Bishop and her clergy. Her faith in the Sacred Heart of Jesus is powerfully portrayed throughout.



I saved it to our DVR, but it may be showing again. It can be rented or purchased here
