This documentary traces the life of this charismatic Polish Pope from his early life to the later years of his Papacy. It's not only fascinating but so incredibly inspiring. Karol Wotyla was an intellectual with a common touch and though no one could have predicted his rise to head of the Catholic church, in retrospect it doesn't seen that surprising. This movie shows with documentary footage, interviews with friends and associates, and even the Pope's own words, how life shaped him into the most popular Pope of modern times. I can't recommend this film strongly enough and my only complaint is that I would have liked it to be longer.
