(at around 21 mins) The priest tells Angela that suicide is a mortal sin and therefore Isabel cannot have a Catholic funeral. While the church does still consider suicide a sin, this judgment does not hold in cases of mental illness. In modern times, suicide is considered evidence of mental illness, and since Isabel was in a mental institution, whether or not she may have a Catholic funeral is a moot point. People who commit suicide are no longer refused a Catholic burial in consecrated ground.
