After the pope’s death, his ring (the so-called fisherman’s ring) is removed and destroyed
Synopsis
When Cardinal Lawrence is entrusted with leading one of the world’s most secret and ancient events, the election of a new pope, he finds himself at the center of a conspiracy that could shake the very foundations of the Catholic Church. Many of the actions Cardinal Lawrence and the other cardinals take during the conclave process in the film are true and accurate to the Catholic faith and centuries-old traditions. The Vatican makes an official announcement that the throne of the Holy See (the governing body of the Catholic Church) is vacant. The papal residence is sealed with a purple ribbon and sealed with a wax papal seal.
It is claimed that Ayendi will be the first African pope
The College of Cardinals is housed in apartments (Domus Sanctae Marthae, House of Saint Martha) where they can eat and sleep between votes. Finally, the windows and doors of the Sistine Chapel, where the actual elections take place and the votes are cast, are blacked out, closed, and locked to preserve the secrecy of the conclave. The Roman Catholic Church has had three African popes: Victor I (189-199 AD), Miltiades (also known as Melquiades, 311-314 AD), and Gelasius I (492-496 AD). Lawrence: Our faith is a living thing precisely because it goes hand in hand with doubt.

If there were only certainty and without doubt, there would be no mystery. And therefore there would be no need for faith. Let us pray that God would give us a doubting pope. And give us a pope who sins and asks for forgiveness, and who moves on.
This is a political thriller
Allegri: Miserere Performed by Capella Musicale Pontificia Sistina, Massimo Palombella Licensed by Deutsche Grammophon GMBH. Licensed by Universal Music Operations Ltd. With a few tweaks, this kind of vaguely labyrinthine plot unfolds wherever power and control are needed. The main characters – Fiennes, Tucci, Lithgow, Rossellini and Msamati – give strong performances, making the film worth watching for that alone.
The script is well written, if clichéd in places, but it provides tension, momentum and intrigue
The sets also do their part, and because of their size, they add seriousness and authenticity, not just background. Having said all that, and without giving anything away, the ending felt stuck and didn’t fit properly with the rest of the film. While the message was well-intentioned to some extent, it unnecessarily undermined the structure of the rest of the film (it felt simplistic and trendy). It’s a shame because if this part of the film had been given as much attention as the rest, it would have been a better film.
