Pope Francis breaks with tradition in annual ritual by washing the feet of ...
Quick Glance: Pope Washes Feet of 12 Women at Rome Prison
  • Pope Francis washed and kissed the feet of 12 female inmates at a Rome prison during a Holy Thursday ritual to emphasize his calling of service and humility.

  • He revolutionized the foot-washing ritual for the Vatican by insisting, since his first Holy Thursday as pope in 2013, on having women and people of other faiths among the 12 participants.

  • Francis appeared in good shape at the prison, even after presiding over a long Mass earlier in the day in St. Peter’s Basilica. He was also energized by his visit to the Rebibbia prison, where he was given a basket of vegetables grown in the prison garden as well as two liturgical stoles.

  • Despite the conclusion of Holy Thursday events, Francis has a lot to do in the upcoming days that will test his stamina, including the nighttime Way of the Cross procession at the Colosseum on Friday.

Movie Review: Alice Rohrwacher's tombaroli tale 'La Chimera' is pure magic
Quick Glance: La Chimera: Rohrwacher's Genius Overshadowed by Whimsy
  • Alice Rohrwacher's genius is intricately tied to her belief that cinema is a natural extension of imagination, rather than a mere reflection.

  • La Chimera delves into the economic status of a different class in Italian society and the moral and spiritual cost of sacrificing one's history for quick gains.

  • The film blends Fellini-esque aesthetics with scenes on a steam-powered barge and a lively dance at a seaside carnival.

  • Despite acclaim at Cannes, La Chimera feels contrived compared to Rohrwacher's previous works, leaning towards excessive whimsy that detracts from the overall impact.

  • A man from Texas, USA, plans to run in the upcoming presidential elections under the name 'Literally Any Other Person' to express his dissatisfaction with presidential candidates Joe Biden and Donald Trump.

  • Dustin Ebey, a 35-year-old US Army veteran, has legally changed his name to 'Literally Any Other Person' to contest for the White House as he is 'fed up' with the 'constant power struggle' between the Democrats and the Republicans, as reported by The Guardian.

  • 'Literally Any Other Person' needs at least 113,000 signatures from non-primary voters in the state of Texas by May to have his name listed on the ballots. Given the improbability, he is advocating for people to manually write his name in.
