About This Movie

Francesco is a 1989 drama and history film directed by Liliana Cavani. Its leading cast includes Mickey Rourke, Helena Bonham Carter and Andréa Ferréol. It runs for 2 hours 37 minutes.

Synopsis

The life of St. Francis of Assisi (1181-1226) as related by followers who gather after his death to tell stories so that Leone can record them: a privileged and virile youth, a prisoner of war, an heir who turns away from his father and gives all to the poor, a beggar for others, and an inspiration to friends who accept the Gospels' life of poverty.
