I have tried for the past several years to find the title to this cute movie about a newly elected Pope escaping the Vatican and wandering into a desperate Italian village. Through his efforts he rebuilds a water transport system for the village and renews an old priest's faith. Can anyone help me with the title and who played the young pope?

Can you remember how old the movie is?

Not sure if this is movie you are looking for but I figured I would give it a shot anyway. Please click on the link and let me know if this is the one you are thinking of.

The Shoes of the Fisherman (1968/I) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063599/)

If this isn't it, let me know. If you can give me just an approximate age of the movie and anything else you can think of, I will be happy to see if I can turn anything else up for you. Also, if this isn't it and you have never seen this movie, DEFINITELY worth your checking out. Wonderful movie.:)

I think you are looking for Saving Grace 1985, Tom Conti as Pope Leo XIV he gets locked out of the Vatican garden and ends up in a small village. A fine film.
