Anthony Hopkins always does his best when he plays a part. And he portrays Pope Benedict XVI fittingly in the movie The Two Popes. Hopkins portrays the role flawlessly, down to the clothes and demeanor. The Pope's attempt to persuade the Cardinal not to step down in the wake of the Vatican leaks controversy is the subject of the film.
