Tarantino in the West
will be dedicated to Spaghetti Westerns, the new series of repertory and restoration Secret History of Italian Cinema 4 of 64. Venice International Film Festival (August 29 to September 8, 2007). The event Spaghetti Westerns - The Secret History of Italian Cinema 4 provides the projection 64. Exhibition of 40 films, selected according to the ratio of high importance and invisibility: invisible film at least a decade, restored and reconstructed in their entirety.
"godfather" of this initiative will be - as it was for the first edition of Secret History of Cinema Italian in 2004 - the great American filmmaker Quentin Tarantino, connoisseur and admirer of our cinema.
E 'known that among the favorite film by Quentin Tarantino included many Italians. The director, screenwriter, actor and film producer is a fervent admirer of American cinema of Sergio Leone, so to be included in the credits of his recent successes Kill Bill vol. 1 and Kill Bill Vol. 2, a special dedication to the Italian master - as did Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven it (Unforgiven, 1992) - but it is also a connoisseur and passionate "fan" of the films of George Stegani, Franco Rossetti, Ferdinando Baldi, Enzo G. Castellari, Nando Cicero, Sergio Corbucci Joseph Rosati, Giancarlo Santi, Duccio Tessari, Giulio Petroni, Sergio Sollima, Giorgio Ferroni. His film is full of gifts and more or less veiled references to the spaghetti western. He has repeatedly said that his favorite movie is The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Sergio Leone, and suggested his friend Robert Rodriguez as the final episode of the El Mariachi trilogy, Once Upon a Time in Mexico ( Once Upon a Time in Mexico, 2003), yet another tribute to Leone. But, in general, all films in the trilogy that Tarantino's pulp wrote (True Romance - True Romance, 1993, Reservoir Dogs - Reservoir Dogs, 1992, Pulp Fiction, 1994) have an ending with a "triello", a classic which Tarantino hoping to use since he saw for the first time The Good, the Bad and the Ugly by Sergio Leone.
There is only the list of Sergio Leone "spaghetti western" most loved by Quentin Tarantino. We knew for some time. And Venice meet his preferences, since preferences are also those who grew up with the "spaghetti westerns" at the time, seeing them in the hall every day. So Venice will present its western authors of worship, beginning with those most famous, like Sergio Corbucci, with the formidable Navajo Joe Burt Reynolds (Tarantino puts three asterisks) with Joseph Cotten and the cruel, Sergio Sollima, with the surrender of accounts with Tomas Milian and Lee Van Cleef, and Enzo Castellari Keoma with. But even those already "discovered" and paid homage in Kill Bill vol. 1 and Kill Bill Vol. 2 ie the Giulio Petroni of Man to man, with John Phillip Law and Lee Van Cleef (three asterisks for Tarantino), and Giancarlo Santi of The great duel, a film unseen for years in Italy, with Lee Van Cleef and Alberto Dentex (Espresso journalist in his only starring role as "Peter O'Brien), and great music by Luis Bacalov and Sergio Bardotti of the newly deceased. But there are also lesser-known authors and titles, but of great interest, including Tarantino's favorite spaghetti westerns. Beginning with desperado El Franco Rossetti, former writer with Piero Vivarelli Sergio Corbucci's Django, here in his only western director, who noted with three asterisks Tarantino, The Bounty Killer by Eugene Martin, the first western with Tomas Milian star in the role of tormented villain (again, three stars, reported by all as a film to be rediscovered, but even then it was highly regarded in Spain) Pray the dead and kill the live Giuseppe Vari with Klaus Kinski, That damn hot day of reckoning with a Paul Bianchini Robert Woods, prepared the coffin Ferdinando Baldi with Terence Hill (musically already discovered last year by the success of Gnarz Barkley Crazy) Professionals for a massacre of Nando Cicero with George Hilton, the superclass with Giuliano Gemma, A Gun for Ringo Duccio Tessari A dollar and laundry Giorgio Ferroni.
