"True Confessions"

True Confessions (MGM, 1981) stars Robert De Niro as a Catholic priest and Robert Duvall as a homicide detective. The opening scene of the movie shows a Solemn High Nuptial Mass in what is now called the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite. Unfortunately, the movie itself is rated "R" and so is not suitable for all viewers. (H/T: Meeting Christ in the Liturgy)

First anniversary of implementation of "Summorum Pontificum"

Sunday, September 14, was the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross as well as the first anniversary of the coming into effect of Pope Benedict XVI's Apostolic Letter Summorum Pontificum. In honor of the occasion, EWTN televised a Solemn High Mass celebrated at Our Lady of the Angels Monastery of the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration in Hanceville, Alabama, by members of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest. The celebrant was Fr. Karl Lenhardt, the deacon was Fr. Matthew Talarico, and the subdeacon was Fr. William Avis. Below are two excerpts from the telecast.
