Tragedy at Virginia Tech






Italian Film Series is in mourning for what has happened yesterday, Monday April 16, at Virginia Tech University.

Students, instructors, professors just like us died yesterday.

This is the beginning of our President's message we received via e-mail:

"To the Campus Community:

We are all saddened and horrified by today's shooting tragedy at Virginia Tech. I hope you will join me in offering your support and condolences to the Virginia Tech community..."

It was a beautiful day, yesterday: the Spring was finally coming, the sky was blue and the semester almost over made us think about vacations, fun, family, friendship... who could think about a nightmare like this? University is a beautiful place, it is a place of peace and learning, an experiment in community and sharing... Violence is not our means of expression, is not our language.

Gentiluomini si nasce, non si diventa. O forse si spaccia.

  Carissimi,  "The Gentlemen" (2019) di Guy Ritchie, gangster movie con quel tocco ironico e stilizzato alla Wes Anderson, ritorna...
