Suor Pascalina

At times, Pope Pius XII has been criticized for his weak efforts in opposing the Nazi's but has been credited to the opposite many times by Jewish scholars and organizations. Sister Pascalina certainly was a force in the Vatican and at times was a "Bull in a China Shop" but in a much needed way. As a consigliere to the Pope, this team did all they could do to save Roman Jews during WWII. The film was very enjoyable.

Remo Girone was the main motif to see this mini series. He proposes a fair, nuanced portrait of Pius XII and this is one of basic virtues of film.

Christine Neubauer is admirable for the hard effort to offers the fair tone to her character. The tension of this work is obvious and her sister Pascalina , wooden at first sight, represents more than a decent job.

It is a film about a time, remembering manz other biographic movies, from cliches to the crumbs of pathetic. But it works just well , reminding, suggesting, exploring sensitives themes in reasonable manner.

A generous subject and a good work .
