A Pope of the People
Added 12/24/2008
This movie will engage you from beginning to end. All of the characters are complex and each is very convincingly portrayed. It's appeal is not an overly sentimental presentation of the "old god becomes human theme." Instead it takes a man who happens to be pope and allows him to temporarily abandon the vestments of his position. The central character has all the flaws of any man and makes mistakes that in some instances result in trajedy. Tom Conti's performance is outstanding. His character is both passionate and sensitive but like the rest of us struggles to make the right decisions and take the best action. The results are not predictable. You will laugh and cry but above all else it will challenge your views of what constitutes good and evil. And in the end...(I'll let you decide).

Very timely
Added 12/16/2008
This is a timely work ~ a man searching for his own personal faith in a world where he doesn't seem to fit. Ultimately, he realizes he does fit, and his faith is strong and intact, and that he does truly make a difference in the world. Really well done.
