ROME (Reuters) - A church in central Italy may need reconsecrating after police discovered it had been the location for a pornographic film, Italian media has reported.
The church of San Vicenzo’s seedy past came to light when a local – watching “Il Confessionale” (“The Confessional Box”) – recognised the spot. He called in the police who, on closer study of the movie, confirmed his suspicions.
The local priest said the film crew told him they were shooting a wedding scene in the church. But actually, a man dressed as a priest was filmed having sex with a woman playing the bride.
The priest of nearby Gioia dei Marsi said that under canon (church) law the Bishop of Marsi, Lucio Renna, would have to rebless all services held in San Vicenzo, east of Rome, since the film was shot in 1998.
Italian news agency ANSA quoted Renna as saying: “First we have to find out exactly what happened… I have to speak with those involved and find out what went on and why.”
Last night on TV, I heard that a massage parlor has sued their neighboring church. The massage parlor claims that the bells and the church service disturbs their customers who are there for their massage.
