...that film that may have marked the real watershed in Moretti's career. Until then, he had essentially played himself in nearly all his dozen-plus movies, even when the protagonist was a famous politician with amnesia (Palombella Rossa, or Red Wood Pigeon) or a local priest with anger-management issues (La Messa è Finita, or The Mass has Ended). Moretti's serial use of a humorous, self-referencing onscreen persona - and one plagued with late 20th century, middle-class angst - has drawn inevitable comparisons to Woody Allen.

Attendance at mass is down, birth control is commonplace, and not one new priest was ordained last year in the Dublin archdiocese - which estimates that more than 100 of its priests since 1940, about 4% of the total, have abused children. Diarmuid Martin, a Vatican diplomat who speaks five languages, was made Dublin's Archbishop in 2004 and has sought to clean up and revitalize the church. He spoke with Time's J.F.O. McAllister. How has Ireland changed since you left it for the Vatican 30 years ago? It used to be that Irish society...
...flat surface immediately starts to un-crumple it's the real deal. "Spraying" Naira is also common at birthdays, weddings and in the thousands of evangelical churches across the country. Generous guests or churchgoers peel off notes from wads of cash, tossing them towards a wedding couple or priest. Tradition dictates that these notes are not picked up until after the celebrations are over, so they are often stomped into the ground...
