...Howard must have found L'Osservatore Romano's genial review an unexpected blessing, somewhere between a celebratory puff of white smoke and the mild penance of 10 Our Fathers and 10 Hail Marys. We also hear that the paper's gossip columnist, Father Guido Sarducci, praised Tom Hanks for looking surprisingly fit in swim trunks. (See Tom Hanks' top 10 hairstyles...
