Desc: Gone with the Pope: Directed by Duke Mitchell. With Duke Mitchell, Lorenzo Dardado, Jim LoBianco, Peter Milo. Famed nightclub performer Duke Mitchell is Paul, a paroled gangster with an unholy scheme: to kidnap the Pope and 'charge a dollar from every Catholic in the world' as the ransom. Shot in 1975, GONE WITH THE POPE was unfinished at the time of Duke Mitchell's death in 1981, and finally completed in 2009 from a rediscovered, unfinished print.
