Review of Pope Francis: A Man of His Word (2018) by Brent_Marchant — 24 May 2018
An in-depth look at the views of a religious leader who earnestly seems to be attempting to take his followers in some radically new directions for a perpetually staid institution that has long resisted the kinds of change it needs to remain viable in a rapidly-shifting world.
While many of the questions posed to the pontiff are somewhat on the softball side, his responses are nevertheless candid, even when couched in metaphorical terms. The film offers little insight into the man behind the robe, but its clear, concise, ever-respectful presentation of his outlooks and their importance for the world are spot-on.
Worthwhile viewing, regardless of whether or not you're Catholic.
