"The Pope's Succession" isn't the kind of movie that should be highly recommended, but it's an option if you want to know a little more about contemporary Pope Francis. The two actors who played the Pope gave us the best actor-level performances. This is a work of two people's acting skills. But this is not the most anticipated part of it. The acting skills just add some comfortable viewing experience to the story, and you can finish the story very comfortably. To be sure, most of the plot here is fictitious. The friction and reconciliation between the two popes has a real background, but the conversations are based on sound speculation. This is a film that gave me a quiet glimpse into the state of contemporary Catholicism. For an atheist, there is little mysticism here, but it is full of doubts that are not fully accepted. The two popes are more perfectly framed in the works, and although the works try to humanize them, the relatively perfect shaping still makes them incompatible with mortals. Sacred in a human way, which is probably a goal the director wanted. After watching this movie, I kept thinking, how cohesive is this belief that is imposed from birth? The decline in the number of Catholics was by no means the result of the Pope's misconduct. This changeable world will actually catch everyone off guard, just watched a documentary - "Mohammed bin Salman". There is no doubt that Salman is changing the Middle East and the world like a sudden monster. And there will be many, many people like him. How does the power of faith help people fight against this ever-changing world?

    I could just say right now that this is one of this year's top ten. The truth may be vital, but without love it becomes unbearable. - Benedict XVI

    I watched it with my Catholic friends, and discussed it while watching. It was really a special feeling. The two sessions in the film were a little trembling. It happened that I watched the BBC documentary about Francis some time ago. Maybe he is really a Catholic. In the current generation, when the church is slowly losing its members, and child molestation scandals are frequent, God let him appear to lead the church to reform and win the hearts of the people again. the guide. A week ago, Francis announced the lifting of the Pontifical Secrecy Act against the priests involved in the child molestation case. Although there are voices saying that the move was too late, after all, this is the first time that the most conservative church that has been running for more than 2,000 years has been "God's spokesperson in the world", the biggest progress made by the front is really not easy.

The Two Popes quotes

  • Pope Benedict: We all suffer from spiritual pride. We all do. You must remember that, uh..you are not God. In God, we move, and live, and have our being. We live in God, but we are not of it. You're only human.

  • Pope Benedict: I cannot feel the presence of God. I do not hear His voice, do you understand me?
