Click here to rent

In view of the recent death of Pope Francis I thought you might like to know that Conclave, the recent Oscar-winning movie about the election of a Pope, starring a pitch-perfect Ralph Fiennes as a presiding cardinal, and with an estimable performance from Isabella Rosellini as a tough nun, is now available to watch online.

Rental is only £4.95 or you can buy it for £9.95.
