Rated 15 Apr 2012

Amusing low key black comedy about Janacci's Kafkaesque efforts to secure an audience with the Pope. Marvellous jabs at the dogmatism of bureauracy (only amplified by religious dogma) makes for an at times hilariously frustrating tale, aided immeasurably by Jannaci's hangdog performance, and copious beautiful shots of the always lovely Cardinale. Leads to a surprisingly bleak, but completely perfect, conclusion.
