Review of We Have a Pope (2011) by Trameka H — 28 May 2013
Amid the worldwide spectacle and canonical pomp of choosing a pope, we find a very human conclave of cardinals. In this imagining, the gathered cardinals pray to not be chosen, and the chosen one panics and then escapes to have a chance to reflect on his new reality.
The worlds of the now anonymous pontiff and the cardinals are vastly different, and that affects the outcome of the film. While it is choppy and unmoored, much like the main character, the film is a welcome chance to wonder "what if?".
