Lentorama 2014: We're Ready for Your Closeup, Your Holiness
Day 13: In nome del popolo sovrano
This Italian film from 1990 tells the story of the 19th century attempt at forming an independent Roman republic that the French and Austrians thwart by returning Piux IX to the Vatican. The story is less about that than the lives of some of the republicans and their attempt to escape Rome once the French arrive. Someone does actually play the pope, so I suppose that's something.
