Indignant Catholics in many countries responded so angrily to the announcement that the Vatican L'Osservatore Romano called it all an "incredible misunderstanding" and assured the faithful that even the doubtful saints could still be venerated locally or privately. Actress Gina Lollobrigida made her own point by buying a new St. Christopher statuette for her Rolls-Royce and posing with it in St. Peter's Square...
Rome reacted almost as if the Pope himself had run off with Gina Lollobrigida. The respected Roman daily Il Messaggero wondered ungallantly (and, as it turned out, incorrectly) whether the priest's prospective bride might be pregnant.

"In Europe, we act small and stupid. And that makes us appealing." To whom was she appealing at the moment? asked a reporter. "Very many men. I am very generous,"was the answer. "Today, sexy comes from the personality...
...reigns a vast and unusual variety of contemporary heroes. The Italians idolize Grand Prix drivers, artists, novelists and occasionally Sicilian banditti. They fall barely short of adoring Nino Benvenuti, the boxing champion. They lavish attention on their celebrated movie directors-Antonioni, Fellini, Rossellini. And who, of course, could overlook Gina or Sophia...
