TORONTO – Not long after Michele Morrone appeared on “Belve”, where he expressed his grievances about the Italian Film Industry, the 365 Actor was cast in the new movie The Sicilian. The film is set to begin shooting in Sicily and Canada this September, with Swedish filmmaker Amir Chamdin directing. During his interview with Belve’s Francesca Fagnani, Morrone griped about being left out of Italian Cinema due to [what he believes is] a combination of politics and snobbery. Specifically, that he didn’t attend prestigious acting schools and that his political views don’t lean left.
TORONTO – Dal documentario di Carlo Lizzani del 1949 “Nel Mezzogiorno Qualcosa è Cambiato“, quasi 60 grandi film sono stati girati a Matera e nei suoi dintorni, nei Sassi, abitazioni rupestri risalenti a 10.000 anni fa. E ora la sesta stagione di “The Chosen“, una miniserie di grande successo sulla missione di Gesù di Nazareth, è in corso di lavorazione in quella che in modo appropriato viene chiamta la “Città dei Sassi”…
TORONTO – Since Carlo Lizzani’s 1949 documentary Nel Mezzogiorno Qualcosa è Cambiato (Something Has Changed in the South), nearly 60 major films have been shot in and around Matera’s 10,000-year-old cave dwellings – known as the Sassi. And now the sixth season of The Chosen, a very popular miniseries about the mission of Jesus of Nazareth, is being filmed in the aptly named “City of Stones”.
TORONTO – Quattro anni fa, la Pixar ha messo da parte il suo consueto approccio “realistico” alla produzione cinematografica quando ha ingaggiato Enrico Casarosa per realizzare il suo film d’animazione “Luca”. Il film segue le avventure di un bambino a Ponterosso, una cittadina di mare immaginaria sulla Riviera italiana…
TORONTO – Four years ago, Pixar set aside its usual brain trust approach to filmmaking when they hired Enrico Casarosa to make his animated film Luca. The film follows a little boy’s adventures in Ponterosso, a fictional seaside town on the Italian Riviera. A Genoa native, Casarosa made the most of his creative license and developed a story which was not only nominated by Academy Awards, but in 2021 became the most-watched streaming film with over 10.6 billion minutes viewed (on Disney +).
