Lentorama 2014: We're Ready for Your Closeup, Your Holiness
Day 23: Saving Grace
Another film from 1986, but with the pope front and center. Tom Conti plays Leo XIV, a pope whose doubts and feeling of isolation from regular people come to a critical mass when he finds himself locked out of the Vatican. Leaving aside questions of how that happens, Leo eventually finds himself in a village where he learns to reconnect, etc.
This was apparently the last movie released by Embassy Pictures, which gave us films like The Graduate, The Lion in Winter, and Zapped!
