About The Pope of Greenwich Village

Directed by Stuart Rosenberg, The Pope of Greenwich Village leans on a strong ensemble — Eric Roberts, Mickey Rourke, Daryl Hannah — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 1984.
