Mission accomplished: Vatican blesses Blues Brothers

I keep looking for an April Fools joke or something, but apparently this is true:

They really were “on a mission from God.”

In a stunning move by the Vatican, the classic Dan Aykroyd-John Belushi comedy film The Blues Brothers was declared a “Catholic classic” alongside more pious films such as The Ten Commandments and The Passion of the Christ.

The announcement was made in the Vatican’s official newspaper L’Osservatore Romano, corresponding with 30th anniversary of the release of the film.
