The Pope of Greenwich Village (1984). Two cousins unknowingly rob the mob and face the dangerous consequences.

This never really quite works, despite it's fun premise and a genuinely pretty charming performance by Mickey Rourke. I do think a big part of that is due to Eric Roberts' caricature of both a character and a performance, but even beyond that, it never really works. 5/10.

Paul Bettany and Jeremy Pope Get Meta With Their Own Collaboration for The Collaboration

Paul Bettany and Jeremy Pope had never met each other when they were hired to play artists Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat. There was no chemistry read. Mirroring the subjects of the play, they were put in a room and asked to create something together. The result, with [...] director Kwame Kwei-Armah, is The Collaboration, a dramatization of the mid-’80s artistic collab between the two pop painters.

After premiering on the West End in February 2022, The Collaboration is now running on Broadway at Manhattan Theatre Club, a co-production with original producer Young Vic Theatre—and filming for a screen adaptation has already been completed.

Bettany and Pope both showed up to the first day of rehearsal off-book, ready to excavate the relationship that McCarten created for the art icons in his imagined conversations between the two. “We’re not just here to give you what you can read on Wikipedia,” says Pope. “[Basquiat and Warhol] had a connection. There was a love affair, if you will, for this period of time where they were just asked to create artwork together.”

Bettany shares a theory from McCarten: “Documentary can get you to the front door of somebody’s house, but it takes invention to bring them in and have a cup of tea.”

“We’re in debt so much to Warhol and to Basquiat for how much they gave when they were with us,” says Pope. “Whether we’re talking about the commercialization, the surface, and the celebrity [of Warhol]. Or Basquiat and hip-hop culture, graffiti, and spoken word—so much of what we see has evolved from the foundation these two artists contributed to their community.”

Adds Bettany: “It’s hard to overstate how much [Warhol] changed how the world looks." Bettany believes that Warhol’s pop art, which could be taken at a very surface level (particularly the repetitious prints of celebrities), were actually a “sly and clever comment on where we seem to be hurtling toward.”

“He predicted Instagram,” says Pope. “Andy used to paint and draw very beautiful things, but his work evolved into just this brand. That’s the thing we see now with social media: What’s your brand and what does it look like? And then you’re meant to do that thing over and over and over again.”

McCarten has also found how the two opposites come together, sharing similar feelings of loneliness and close connections to their mothers. What began for Warhol and Basquiat as an arranged collaboration developed into a deep friendship, attending events together, working out together, getting pedicures. Basquiat even rented an apartment and studio space in a building owned by Warhol on Great Jones Street in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village. And it was Basquiat who inspired Warhol to begin painting again after decades of screen-printing.

In bringing the relationship to life, Pope and Bettany have experienced a similar kinship in the past year. They would often call each other after rehearsal to continue talking about the play, leaving Kwei-Armah to question if they ever got any sleep when they would return to rehearsal the next day with new things to try. Pope points out with pride that Bettany is making his Broadway debut in the same theatre he did. And though they’ve yet to have a mani-pedi date, both men speak lovingly of their times together.

“I feel free on stage with this person, because I know that he’s creating and making so much space for all of the things I’m bringing to the character, and vice versa,” says Pope.

The feeling is mutual for Bettany: “Going on stage with Jeremy night after night is like flying in your dreams. I’ve loved every minute of it.”

pope of greenwich village is about the saddest wettest most pathetic italian men

#like no joke the key word is pathetic

[urbanhermit]

I finished ‘The Pope Who Would Be King: The Exile of Pius IX & The Emergence of Modern Europe” (2018) the primary introduction to David I Kertzer’s ‘Prisoner of the Vatican: The Pope’s Secret Plot to Capture Rome & the New Italian State’. Unfortunately, I read them reversed. Both works are highly researched. Pio Nono (Pius IX) [whom I have named Pius No No, as he was incapable of making decisions, & as he aged, he became bitter & vindictive] as the Italians referred to him was the last of the pope-kings. Out of Pius IX’s desperation, the modern Catholic Church was formed. The days of divine rule & imperial dynasty were numbered [will we witness the same in the UK]. The Republic of Rome gave a very different glimpse of life – the life not of subject but of emancipated citizen. He was beatified by John Paul II at the same time he beatified John XXIII. Pius IX was a pastoral, not a political pope. He convoked the cardinals to discuss not the unfolding political crisis but rather the need for an encyclical proclaiming the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception. He would call the Vatican Council, and strengthened the position of the pope, for the first time, officially declared infallible wresting power away from the cardinals & bishops & from the national churches. After the Roman Republic on his return to Rome he would avoid the Quirinal Palace, where he lived before fleeing the rebellion. The Quirinale was the symbol of political power, of the pope as king of the Papal States. The Vatican was the center of the pontiff’s religious authority, worldwide in range. Pius would retreat ever more into his religious role, finding solace in the spiritual realm. Upon his return to Rome, he would never be able to rule except by foreign arms.
