Have No Fear: The Life of Pope John Paul II
Poet, actor, playwright, and a simple Polish priest, Karol Wojtyla (Thomas Kretschmann) believed the pomp of the Catholic Church was "a circus," and the Pope "a prisoner of the Vatican." But one day he would become Pope John Paul II, one of the greatest and most influential figures of the 20th Century.   From his humble beginnings, he found inner strength and courage despite the death of his family, the rape of his beloved Poland by the Third Reich, and its later domination by the Communists.    Among the world events covered in this inspiring chronicle is the shocking sexual abuse scandal of the American Catholic Church, the murder of El Salvador Archbishop Oscar Romero, and John Paul’s own near-assassination at the hand of a Turkish gunman.
