What happens
In the Pope's Eye (Italian: Il pap'occhio) is a 1980 Italian comedy film written and directed by Renzo Arbore. It was released in September 1980, and it was heavily attacked by the Catholic press. Three weeks later it was confiscated "for insulting the Catholic religion and the person of the Holy Pope" on the orders of the L'Aquila prosecutor Donato Massimo Bartolomei. The film grossed 5 billion lire being the 5th best grossing film in Italy in the 1980/1981 season. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
