How realistic is ‘Conclave,’ the movie?

It tries to showcase the battle for the soul of the church that takes place during a papal election & examines the tension between the demands of faith and the desire for high office.

How realistic is ‘Conclave,’ the movie that lifts the lid on how a pope is elected? | CNN
This has been a blockbuster election year politically, so it’s fitting that a new movie shines a light on an ancient and highly secretive voting process: the selection of a new pope.
