Pope Francis lets loose Italian F-word
"He [a Christian] doesn't accumulate wealth for himself but shares it to benefit other people. In this [fuck], in this case the providence of God will become visible through this gesture of solidarity," he said.

Pope Francis lets loose Italian F-word
Loves boys' heads (Time) |
While delivering
his weekly Sunday homily, the leader of the [Holy] Roman Catholic
[Empire] accidentally uttered the Italian equivalent of the F-word.

Comedian Billy Connolly states it can be understood regardless of one's background, and musician Alanis Morissette says its taboo nature gives it power. The film contains the last interview of author Hunter S. Thompson before his suicide. It features animated sequences by Bill Plympton.
Hollywood agrees (celebrityjuicer) |
The documentary was first screened at the AFI Film Festival at ArcLight Hollywood. New York Times critic A.O.

(Dogwoof) The F**k For Forest the Movie trailer
I love the, uh, the forest. |
Berlin’s F**k For Forest is at least one of the world’s most bizarre charities. Based on the idea that sex can save the world, the NGO raises money for their environmental cause by selling home-made erotic films on the Internet. And now a movie has been made about their efforts. More
