Like the character Cardinal Lamberto, who becomes John Paul I, the historical John Paul I, Albino Luciani, reigned for only a very short time before being found dead in his bed.
Kao i lik kardinala Lamberta, koji postaje Ivan Pavao I., povijesni Ivan Pavao I., Albino Luciani, vladao je vrlo kratko prije nego je pronađen mrtav u svom krevetu.
