Also showing: Mike Leigh’s latest family drama and stirring 1950s romance ‘On Swift Horses’
At the Toronto International Film Festival, last year’s Hollywood actors’ strike has started to seem like a distant memory. Fans throng King Street, which hosts several festival theatres, craning to see stars en route to screenings and enjoying the fellow feeling in the autumn air. If actors are absent this year, it is often because they are elsewhere, shooting something new — good news for future movie-goers. The 49th edition of the festival is another busy showcase of 278 films.
Accompanying Fiennes are a well-cast crew of cardinals, including Stanley Tucci as Lawrence’s sophisticated but plain-speaking ally, John Lithgow as a pompous self-promoter, and Sergio Castellitto as a rabble-rousing conservative, plus Isabella Rossellini as a formidable nun. The genuinely unpredictable drama unfolds amid the monumental architecture and ethereal murals of the Vatican, and Berger likes to make us privy to arcane details of the conclave, such as the way ballots are handled.
