I've not been Christian since late teenhood, if I even was one before then, really - but I liked Papa Francisco.

Of course he, and the Catholic church, held/hold some views I disagree with - but he largely preached acceptance and love and pushed back on a lot of the papal pomp.

I watched The Two Popes (not sure if still available on Netflix) a while back, and liked how it turned popes back into humans. Jonathan Price was great in it.
