Forget the Oscar nod, Jonathan Pryce's portrayal of the 83-year-old Argentine Jesuit, the current head of the Catholic church, received even higher praise when they screened The Two Popes at the Vatican. "Cardinal (Peter) Turkson, a close friend of Benedict's and Francis', told me that it was amazing to see his friends on screen and asked if he could take a DVD of the film to Francis," Pryce relayed to CNN. "He said he thought Francis would like the film. I nearly cried."
