The Two Popes

Nominated for four Golden Globes, including Best Actor and Best Picture!

One Week Only!

Frustrated with the direction of the church, Cardinal Bergoglio (Jonathan Pryce) requests permission to retire in 2012 from Pope Benedict (Anthony Hopkins). Instead, facing scandal and self-doubt, the introspective Pope Benedict summons his harshest critic and future successor to Rome to reveal a secret that would shake the foundations of the Catholic Church. Behind Vatican walls, a struggle commences between both tradition and progress, guilt and forgiveness, as these two very different men confront their pasts in order to find common ground and forge a future for a billion followers around the world.

UK | Italy | Argentina | USA, 2019, 125 minutes, Rated PG-13, Directed by Fernando Meirelles

  • “Want to see a master class in acting? A fierce and funny provocation…miraculous performances.”

    – Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE
  • “(Meirelles) works with wit and quiet humor to demystify perhaps the most powerful, insular post in the world.”

    – Leah Greenblatt, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
  • “This lively, intriguing and insistently humanistic flight of fancy... brims with wit, warmth and some tantalizing what-ifs.”

    – Ann Hornaday, WASHINGTON POST
  • “With great writing, smart direction and late career-high performances from Anthony Hopkins and Jonathan Pryce, it's a high-end treat.”

    – Ian Freer, EMPIRE MAGAZINE
  • “Anthony Hopkins and Jonathan Pryce are divinely great together in the splendid and literate ‘The Two Popes’.”

    – Pete Hammond, DEADLINE HOLLYWOOD DAILY
  • “This scintillating drama, written by Anthony McCarten, achieves a maximum of theatrical delight and intellectual substance with two glorious performances.”

    – Joe Morgenstern, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL
