From today's Metro, referring to movies that are available for sale from RAI, the Italian State Broadcaster:

"There's [...] Karol, a biodrama of the life of the late pope, and The Jeweller's Shop, a German production of one of the plays written by Karol Wojtyla, starring Burt Lancaster. Then there's the German/Canadian co-production The Conclave, a feature-length film about the 1458 papal election that made the sybaritic Rodrigo Borgia - yes, of the infamous Borgia clan, famed for poison and incest - into Pope Alexander VI. Production on The Conclave wrapped principal photography two months ago in Halifax.

Frankly, I'm dying to see how they turned Barrington Street and the Citadel into Renaissance Rome and the Sistine Chapel, and how they kept the Keith's bottles out of the shot when shooting scenes with extras."
