For the first time in history, were getting to see video images of Pope Pius XII in color. The Vaticans film library surprisingly found the images that were filmed back in 1956.
@thomasbraun321 the book you've mentioned full of bullshit! sorry but that's what it is. you honestly believe that crap? John XXIII had nothing but love and respect for Pius XII. Matter of fact he even said that Pius was doctor of the Church! You're a liar! The Pope isn't a politician he's the pastor of the Universal Church.
@capsule35 hello, thanks for the information. by the way, in that docu, there was this choir/orchestra piece while clips of pope pius were being shown. the words said "rex". do you know what that piece is? i'd appreciate it, thanks. :)
@smrc09 - Hi, it's called 'Pio XII: il Principe di Dio' It was made by the Italian channel Rai Tre as part its documentary series 'La Grande Storia'. A number of episodes were produced under the general title "I Papi del '900", covering the lives of the Popes from Pius XII to John Paul II, and another episode explained the history of the conclave. It's available secondhand as a DVD collection, but I'm sure the people who've put it on Youtube must have cleared the copyright : )
This isn't new. The footage was used in an Italian TV documentary shown in 2006 (the image quality on the DVD is considerably better than that shown here). Also, the name of the courtyard is the Cortile di San Damaso, not "Damasco".
Now there was a real Pope!
