Two popes and one question - how do we move from era to era? The Two Popes, PATRICK MARMION, explains

www.dailymail.co.uk, September 16, 2022
MARTIME ARMION: This fine revival of Anthony McCarten's play about Popes Benedict and Francis is poignantly timely at a time of transition in the Royal Family. It's a fundamental question of how we transition from one era to another and how an incumbent interacts with their office that is on our minds today. The play, which was turned into a film starring Anthony Hopkins and Jonathan Pryce, is a look at what happened behind the scenes in 2013, when Benedict shocked the world's 1.2 billion Catholics by becoming the first pontiff to step down in 700 years. Anton Lesser - with Nicholas Woodeson as Francis - portrays the Pope's fading soul, and both men and women find a lot of warmth in the men's tense souls. The big issue is whether or not the Catholic Church should revive or revert its 2,000-year-old traditions. However, both McCarten and the actors are focusing on the two guys as human beings with a slew of responsibility.
