I am. Haven't seen it yet.

Not really interested. I read enough late Medieval and Renaissance history back in the day to know that the worldly politics which dominated the Church's institutions for more than a millennium and a half still exist and are powerful In my mind such conditions detract from the religion's purpose. This is back-room horse trading on par with Tammany Hall. Christians and others don't need another Pope "Boss Tweed" leading the institution and catering to American and other right-wing Bishops aligned with Mr. Trump and the Project 2025 crew. A pox on all these houses - Ecce Pox Romana.

Cheers and be well.

There's really nothing to watch. It is behind closed doors. If cameras were allowed in the I would be glued to the television.
 
Everyone should definitely watch the film. Highly recommended.
 
Agreed. I'll just wait until white smoke is seen.


As far as I know that is what most Roman Catholics will be doing. Everyone goes about their business until white smoke is seen. Then everyone turns on the tv
 
The OP mentioned May 7, which is when the Conclave starts. The movie has been out for a while. I watched it on Prime about two weeks ago.
I saw it in the theater several months ago. It is streaming now. As another poster said, there will not be much to see by watching the actual Conclave.

There will be nothing really to see as they are sequestered until the final vote when the white smoke appears
 
I think the OP was asking about watching the movie...
Exactly. I was going to watch it with my honey, then she told me she already watched it....
