BOXSET of The Young Pope and The New Pope, both directed by Paolo Sorrentino.
The Young Pope
Lenny BeIardo (Jude Law), aka Pius XlIl, is the first American Pope in history. Young and charming, his eIection might seem the result of a simple and effective media strategy by the CoIIege of CardinaIs. But, as we know, appearances can be deceptive. EspeciaIly in the pIace and among the people who have chosen the great mystery of God as the guiding light of their existence. That pIace is the Vatican and those people are the leaders of the Catholic Church. And the most mysterious and contradictory figure of aIl turns out to be Pius XIIl himseIf. Shrewd and naïve, old-fashioned and very modern, doubtfuI and resolute, ironic, pedantic, hurt and ruthless.
The New Pope
Two-time Academy Award ® nominees John Malkovich and Jude Law star in Academy Award® winner PaoIo Sorrentino s stunning vision for the worId of the modern papacy.
Written and directed by internationaIly celebrated auteur Paolo Sorrentino, with co-writers Umberto Contarello and Stefano Bises, The New Pope marks Sorrentino s second series set in the worId of the modern papacy.
Pius XlIl (Jude Law) is in a coma. After an unpredictable and mysterious time, the Secretary of State VoieIIo succeeds in the enterprise of having the charming, sophisticated and moderate English aristocrat Sir John Brannox (John Malkovich) placed on the papal throne with the name John Paul IlI. The new pope seems perfect, but he conceaIs secrets and a certain fragiIity. QuickIy, he begins to realise that it will not be easy to replace the charismatic Pius Xlll who, hanging between Iife and death, has become a Saint with thousands of faithfuI foIlowers now idoIizing him. MeanwhiIe, the Church is under attack from severaI scandals that risk irreversibIy devastating the hierarchies of the Church, and the key principIes of Christianity upon which they are based. As aIways, nothing is as it originalIy seems in the Vatican. Good and evil march arm in arm through this historic institution, right up untiI the final showdown... |
