Watching the film without any knowledge of the reality of religion, Argentina's past, gained a huge emotional and follow-through energy. As a child, it is difficult to remember the darkness of 13 years of SARS, let alone that so many people gather in the square on the other side of the world and wait to see black or white smoke coming from the chimney, which affects the most steadfast pillar of these people's hearts , no less than the physical tension in the face of an unknown disease.
The new Pope is undoubtedly the spotlight of the movie. It is popular, penetrates into the masses, keeps up with the times, and even brings the old Pope liberation and worldly happiness, but what is really moving is that this one is a little cowardly, a little old, a little heavy, a little lonely and a little powerless. Change the existing old pope, but he is so brave and broad at the same time, pouring out his repentance, handing over the unfinished business to the newcomer, walking into the crowd, eating pizza and watching football happily. Humans are never perfect. Perfection is the realm of God. But it is the person who timidly and hesitantly chooses to announce his resignation in Latin so that everyone can't understand and have no time to react. He is the most shining person, the better version of ourselves we can reach with our hands full of tears in front of the screen.
Two generations of popes are masters of chatting, coming and going. Especially the old pope can always use the other party's famous words to get back his position. Is it a change or a compromise? Probably a subjective question.
Some lines that were impressive when I watched them, Mark from memory, were not accurate.
we all suffer from spiritual pride
what makes you a leader is not power, not wit, but the way you live
The truth maybe vital, but without love, it will be undetectable
