The Passing of a Great Italian-American Artist

 Arguably one of the greatest actors of our time died on last Thursday. James Gandolfini was an acquaintance of mine. Larger than life, he created characters that were real and wasn't afraid to show himself -- warts and all. I write now as someone who has had an Italian last name my whole life. I grew up in the small town of Flint, Michigan where there were almost no other people of italian descent. When I arrived in NYC in 1979, it was very accepted in the media and in the art community to be Italian American.

Dublino.BLOOM’S DAY. Festa per un personaggio inventato

Emanuela Medoro

Non c’è niente di simile in Italia, le nostre feste nascono dalla fede popolare in santi e madonne più o meno miracolosi. Questa festa di Dublino nasce, invece, da un personaggio inventato da uno scrittore del luogo, oggi ritenuto un genio, domani chissà, ed è una celebrazione della creatività artistica irlandese.

Con Chatrian Locarno è pronto al balzo

di Carlo Di Stanislao

Situata sulle rive del lago Maggiore ai piedi delle Alpi, la città medievale di Locarno è la cornice ideale per un Festival cinematografico, capace non solo di accogliere le delegazioni che accompagnano i film selezionati, gli ospiti più prestigiosi e i professionisti del settore, ma di affiscinare gli appassionati grazie alle atmosfere rilassate e conviviali, che compongono un perfetto connubio tra “dolce vita” e professionalità, serietà e servizi.

Ospetek, in ritardo

Carlo Di Stanislao

L’ho visto ora e debbo dire, per prima cosa, che “Magnifica presenza” è un film davvero poco italiano, elegante, curato, intellettualmente evoluto, formalmente ineccepibile, una storia non facile da maneggiare
