We have waited 700 years to live in a time when there are two popes alive at the same moment, but because this unique event has given way to a beguiling new film about the intersection between Popes Benedict and Francis, as imagined by screenwriter Anthony McCarten and director Fernando Mereilles, it has been well worth the wait.
The film itself has much more on its mind than just these conversations that take place first at Benedict’s retreat, then at the Vatican and even in the Sistine Chapel . It is as timely and pertinent to today with the increasing divide in the world among factions that see things only their way — between progressives, represented by Francis, and conservatives represented by Benedict.
Hopkins and Pryce are as good as it gets, and the ecclesial pingpong match of ideas between them is not only wildly entertaining and engrossing, it is at some points downright hilarious. This is especially true in seeing the human side of both men. Benedict plays the piano, talks about the Beatles and loves watching a TV show calledin which a German shepherd solves crimes. Bergoglio, on the other hand, in a big Argentinian soccer fan we soon learn, and he also loves ABBA.
