Lentorama 2014: We're Ready for Your Close-Up, Your Holiness
Day 5: Luther
No, not the crime drama starring Idris Elba (sadly), but rather a 2003 biopic on the godfather of Protestantism starring Joseph Fiennes. The unpronouncable Uwe Ochsenknecht plays Pope Leo X, who as you might imagine isn't on board with young Luther and all of his theses.
More notable is that this appears to be Peter Ustinov's final film, as he appears playing Frederick the Wise.
