Martin Scorsese, acclaimed director of such films as Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, The Departed, and The Wolf of Wall Street, is meeting with Pope Francis privately today prior to screening Silence at the Vatican.
The film, which is about Jesuit missionaries in 17th-century Japan, premiered yesterday at the Pontifical Oriental Institute in Rome, and it will play also at the Vatican Film Library in Vatican City.
Those of us who don't wear the collar can see Silence, starring Adam Driver and Andrew Garfield, on December 23, when it opens in theaters across the United States.
