Reviews:

Quinn is a revelation
They really could not make a film in this way today. It takes it’s time but gives us lots to see and listen too.

On DVD it looks like the big epic drama it intends to be. The film is let down by Olivier’s sleepwalking performance and a dreadful Russian accent.

Oskar Werner is moving as the dying priest and Leo McKern does a lot less mugging than usual. Even the usually bland David Janssen convinces during the Pope’s death commentary.

However, the film’s heart and soul is Quinn’s sincere, underplayed performance, filled with tiny touching moments of subtext.
