A young priest comes to grips with his vocation. A young super power comes to grips with its new position in the world. These are the stories told in the magnificnt book "The Cardinal".
The movie is a watered down version. The intellectual aspect of the priest is considerable weakened. The cast of characters with whom he interacts is two-dimensional. The plot takes some noticible turns towards popular opinion. Much less satisfying than the novel.
