Cardinals Watch Conclave for Research Ahead of Real Event
According to a Vatican insider speaking to Politico, Berger’s movie is viewed as "astonishingly authentic" even by the Cardinals themselves. In fact, several Cardinals have reportedly watched the film to better understand the process. Starring the legendary Ralph Fiennes as the Dean of the College of Cardinals—the spiritual leader guiding the conclave—Conclave provides an immersive portrayal of the ceremony’s traditions and tensions.
Pope Francis’s passing in late April set the stage for this momentous event. Following his death, 133 cardinal electors from across the globe convened in the Sistine Chapel to select the next Supreme Pontiff. Many of these cardinals were appointed by Pope Francis and lack prior experience with the conclave. For those hailing from smaller or more isolated dioceses, Conclave serves as an invaluable educational tool, helping them grasp the nuances of the ritual.
As the cardinals gather in Rome starting May 7th, their reliance on popular culture to prepare underscores the enduring influence of storytelling. Whether intentional or coincidental, Conclave has proven its relevance both onscreen and off.
