Conclave' Director Edward Berger On The Power Of Self-Doubt, His Long Road To The A-List & Those Pesky Rumors He'll Revive 007
EXCLUSIVE: Though Conclave is fiction based on the Robert Harris novel, you cannot watch Edward Berger ’s taut thriller about the election of a new pope without noticing the parallels to the polarizing politics of the race for the White House. Whether he moves on to a major studio franchise like Ocean’s 14 or 007, it is clear from the confident hand in his visual storytelling that Berger is a filmmaker who can make the kind of impact in sophisticated commercial fare as a Sam Mendes or Christopher Nolan. Ralph Fiennes(already generating strong Oscar buzz), Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow, Isabella Rossellini star in a film that made its Toronto debut this morning and screens again Monday and Tuesday.
