El Papa León XIV, nacido en Chicago, recibió en el Vaticano a estrellas como Cate Blanchett y Spike Lee, en un esfuerzo por profundizar en el diálogo entre creatividad y fe.

Città del Vaticano

Pope Leo XIV hosted a gathering of Hollywood stars, including Cate Blanchett, Spike Lee, and Viggo Mortensen, at the Vatican as part of an initiative to deepen the relationship between creativity and faith. The pope delivered an inspiring speech encouraging filmmakers to include marginalized voices and highlighted his personal appreciation for classic films such as 'The Sound of Music.'

The event also marked the release of a Vatican-produced documentary about Robert Prevost, reflecting the church's engagement with the arts. Vatican officials noted that Pope Leo, who grew up with cinema and television, sees film as a natural medium for storytelling and emphasized the church's commitment to embracing and supporting artistic expression.

El Vaticano comparte protagonismo con Hollywood. Se ha convertido en un emparejamiento común aquí, la fe y la fama se encuentran en el medio para compartir un poco de inspiración y tal vez un poco de poder de estrella. Tinseltown se encuentra con la Ciudad del Vaticano mientras el Papa León recibía a las estrellas de Hollywood como Cate Blanchett, Spike Lee y Viggo Mortensen, todo parte de un esfuerzo de la iglesia para profundizar en el diálogo entre creatividad y fe. Y un poco de ayuda del gran hombre nunca viene mal. El discurso fue hermoso, muy inspirador sobre la esperanza y nuestro trabajo en el cine y nos alegramos de haber venido. Es como una carta de amor al cine. Lo era, realmente lo era. Fue tan inspirador. Es probablemente el primer Papa en hablar de cine. Y las palabras fueron muy, muy conmovedoras. Como cineastas, realmente nos encargó, por supuesto, el cine es entretenimiento, pero se trata de incluir voces que a menudo son marginadas. Antes del evento repleto de estrellas, el Papa americano hizo algo quintaesencialmente americano. Sonrisas y lágrimas de 1965 con Julie Andrews. Compartió sus películas favoritas. # Las colinas están vivas con el sonido de la música # Cuatro clásicos que abarcan el valor en tiempos de guerra, la familia. Estas son algunas de mis cosas favoritas. Dolor, redención y amor frente a la oscuridad. Verás, George, realmente tuviste una vida maravillosa. ¿Qué mejor momento para el Vaticano para estrenar su propia película? Este, un documental, sobre la vida de Robert Prevost desde Chicago a Perú, hasta San Pedro. El obispo Paul Tagg es el secretario de cultura del Vaticano. Es un Papa que creció con la televisión y creció con el cine y es un lenguaje natural para contar sus historias. Tagg dice que el mensaje es claro. La Iglesia no sólo tolera las artes, las abraza. Tenemos que confiar en que el artista, incluso cuando está siendo provocativo, que él o ella está realmente tratando de despertarnos, captar nuestra atención y hacernos pensar sobre cosas que son importantes. Un mensaje subrayado por el amor del Papa por las películas y la gente que las hace. Ahora, el Papa León está en realidad construyendo sobre una tradición que fue iniciada por el Papa Francisco cuando invitó a comediantes como Whoopi Goldberg, Chris Rock y Jimmy Fallon. En ese momento, era seguro preguntarse ¿quién necesitaba más publicidad? Y ahora con Hollywood de vuelta aquí en Roma, la misma pregunta puede seguir aplicándose.
