Maxine S @RT95620411 1 day ago It could have taken easy turns. Instead, it dropped most of the formula and stereotypes and brought real humanity to a pope who wanders into a town that I wish I could go to.

See more saintsamaritan T @RT61134019 Nov 27, 2025 Forget war films, forget the latest Catholic Saint movie, forget the Hallmark Channel. Tastefully done, even a gaggle of nuns will enjoy. 1986 movie with a prophecy hidden within. Let me know if you got it. See more Paul M @RT42248263 Sep 21, 2025 Great movie!! Just what the doctor ordered for my troubled mind and heart! Lucky to have by chance clicked on i)tge station showing it See more Kate S @RT42949656 May 6, 2025 The late Pope Francis always reminded me of Pope Leo in this film. The same kindness and faith that any pope should have. Tom Conti is brilliant in this role and I think a lot of people would find this warm and thought provoking. See more Thea D @Thea57 Feb 19, 2024 A movie about faith and love and the struggle we have to determine if our expectations are from outside or inside of us. Tom Conti is a wonderful actor and I was happy to rediscover him and newly discover this movie on streaming. We need more mainstream movies like this in which the human experience is explored in such thoughtful ways. See more Read all reviews
