Just right

Writing this title may be out of exhaustion, the Pope's Succession is just the right movie I need.
I don't know when it started, but I'm obsessed with this kind of movie that relies on chatting and discussion to prop up the whole plot. The exchange, game, and collision of ideas attract me more than the production and the camera. Maybe this is because I like reading books. The fundamental reason is that I am very addicted to the feeling of the collision of the plot, not just the...

The Pope is also a human being, and he has seven emotions and six desires, but he also needs to eat and drink

The Pope is also a human being, and he also has seven emotions and six desires, and he also needs to eat and drink.
Regarding religion, I have always felt that Chinese people have few devout religious beliefs. Religion is mostly pragmatism and appropriation in the minds of most Chinese people. For example, the objects of our worship are the God of Wealth and the King of Medicine to be healthy. If you want to have Wenquxing in fame, if you want your son to have an empress, if you want...

humility under solemnity

We just love to see the confessions of big men, let alone two.
We love to see the humble under the solemn, not to mention the Vatican.
We just love to see real and live history, not to mention the changes related to Catholicism in the new century.
We like to see the relationship between enemies and friends, not to mention one becomes the successor of the other.

faith and love

A friend stayed up all night and recommended it after reading it. We both have no faith, so we discussed it specifically. He is more inclined to Buddhism, but it does not prevent him from being said "The truth may be important, but if there is no love, it will be unbearable. "Moved. Some people say that the soundtrack is more escapistic, but when the bishop of Argentina hummed in the bathroom and asked what the hymn was, the bishop replied, it was ABBA's Dancing Queen, I liked this film....

The first hour and a half of this movie was really torturous for me I never understood religion let alone if it was a follower of a religion frowning thinking what the hell they were talking about but watching the whole movie in my head There is a feeling of clearing the clouds and seeing the moonlight
First of all, this movie gave me some basic knowledge about Christianity and made me a little progress in the inner world of people who are eager to understand the faith
The second...

The church can no longer lead the believers as a spiritual belief in contemporary society. What if it does not change? The transfer of power is great, but it's not unpredictable for everyone to play together. In 2014, I met a Catholic priest on the border of Guatemala and asked him what he thought about pregnancies and homosexuality. The doctrinal interpretations are becoming outdated, and all beings here seek guidance and help for...

Trivial religious ramblings, simple sympathy between conservatives and confessors, facing the past and exploring human nature. There is a lot of thought in the presentation of the story to reduce certain dullness, including the brisk soundtrack and the life-like profile. The pizza section is particularly interesting, but it is not affected by the...

Movie quotes

Pope Benedict: [playing the piano] You know, the, um... this album was recorded in a famous studio in London. I was told, uh, I should be very honored because the Beatles had been there. Do you know the Beatles?

Pope Francis: Yes, I know who they are.

Pope Benedict: Of course you do.

Pope Francis: 'Eleanor Rigby!'

Pope Benedict: Who?

Pope Francis: 'Eleanor Rigby.'

Pope Benedict: I don't know her.
Pope Francis: [addressing a crowd in Villa 21 Buenos Aires] Once, a young man was walking in the woods. His name was Francesco Bernardone. Suddenly, he found a chapel - ruined, with the walls destroyed. He stepped inside. A crucifix was still there, where the altar had been. Francesco felt captivated. The crucifix spoke to him and said, 'Francesco, repair my Church.' Francesco was a practical man. He went up to the quarry on Mount Subasio, cut stones, carted them down the mountain, and repaired the broken walls. Any journey, no matter how long, has to start somewhere. Any journey, no matter how glorious, can start with a mistake. So, when you feel lost, don't worry. God will not give up.
Pope Benedict: When you were leader of the Jesuits in Argentina, you had all the books on Marxism removed from the library.

Pope Francis: And I made seminarians wear cassocks all day, even when they were working in the vegetable garden. And I called civil marriage for homosexuals the Devil's plan.

Pope Benedict: You were not unlike me.

Pope Francis: I changed.

Pope Benedict: No, you compromised!

Pope Francis: No, I changed! It's a different thing.
