Pape François - Un homme de parole

This movie has a great message which describes humility through a decision this man has made. He quoted many verses from the Bible throughout the movie but it didn't state where to find them. The fact the much of the film showed him speaking in Spanish makes this an easy film for Spanish speaking people who would like to see it. Having the translation below what he said also made it easy for the times he spoke in other languages. The movie was worth it for me to see. I recommend it highly. Stay focused on the words. This movie was made very well for all people and religious sects. Enjoy!

As a Catholic I was curious to check out this documentary on Pope Francis. I came away humbled by the humility of this Pope. This movie is not preachy or overly zealot about Catholicism. It hits on some universal themes like love, forgiveness, and the impermanence of life. It really feels like the Pope is speaking to you directly. The narrator asked simple fundamental questions and Pope Francis answers theme.

I was surprise to learn some areas of the Pope's concerncs. Like science and the environment. It is a testament to the Pope that he reaches beyond the Roman Catholic Church to speak of the relationships with other faiths. That we are brothers to those other religions and to the heart of faith are not very different at all. - Dr. Wilson Triviño

Whether or not you agree with the Catholic Church - its beliefs and actions, etc., the film, shot in documentary and interview style, does provide one with a break from meaningless, shallow viewing. It provides us with the opportunity to contemplate on issues of child abuse, suffering, environmental decline of our planet, freedom, dignity and animal welfare. There were many poignant moments and comments made by Pope Francis. It was time well spent, at the theater.

Pope Francis is telling us all an inconvenient truth. We should all listen carefully, Catholic or not, Christian or not. It's a short documentary (around 90 minutes). Don't trust reviews (even mine) and give it a try to make your own opinion.

I thought it could have used more direct dialogue with the pope, but in all i loved it. We need this message heard...topic of earth, wages, immigration, family time, and culture of greed and miney money money.
