A kind-hearted Irishwoman teams up with an acerbic journalist to find the son she was forced to give up for adoption 50 years ago. “Philomena” has many facets. It is a comedic road movie, a detective story, an infuriated anticlerical screed, and an inquiry into faith and the limitations of reason, all rolled together.
