Karol, un uomo diventato Papa (A Man Who Became Pope)


Great movie. I taped it. I agree the pacing was slow at parts. In a regular movie there's a little suspense regarding the outcome but here, certainly all the viewers know that the Nazis get kicked out in '45 and the Reds get kicked out in '90. I think the movie could have been helped with a voiceover narration to help bridge the gaps and move the story along faster.


Others have complained that the accents reminded people of Colonel Klink in Hogan's Heroes. That's quite harsh but also a little true.


The actor who plays the Communist villain (Julian Kordek) is Hristo Shopov. He portrayed Pilate in The Passion on the Christ
