Carlo Verdone guest speaker at Rome’s Palazzo Borromeo, Rome January 11th, 2022.

One of Italy’s most popular actors-turned-film-director Carlo Verdone was one of the honored guest speakers at Rome’s magnificent Palazzo Borromeo, the seat of the Italian Embassy to the Holy See.

 
The 71 year-old Roman born Verde was greeted by Italian Ambassador Pietro Sebastiani who also took the opportunity of conferring a special commendation upon Monsignor Dario Eduardo Vigano’, an author, university professor and an expert on the world of  cinema and religion. 

 
The event was also a way to fondly recall the way Verdone portrayed priests throughout his long acting career.
