What ‘Conclave’ gets right about choosing the next pope

  • Resumen

  • Cardinals will gather on Wednesday for the highly secretive process of choosing a new pope, following the death of Pope Francis in late April.

    In the film “Conclave,” Ralph Fiennes plays a Catholic cardinal presiding over the election of a new pope. In real life, that task falls to Cardinal Pietro Parolin, a possible front-runner among papal candidates at this week’s conclave at the Vatican.

    But how accurately does the Oscar-nominated “Conclave” match an actual conclave — the process of electing a pope that will begin May 7?

    Today on “Post Reports,” style reporter Shane O’Neill joins host Colby Itkowitz to parse fact from fiction.

    Today’s episode was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy, with help from Ariel Plotnick and Peter Bresnan. It was mixed by Sam Bair and edited by Lucy Perkins. Thanks to Carla Spartos.
