End of Spring Semester: we made it!
Ciao a tutti,
Well, the April 2014 screening of LA
GRANDE BELLEZZA (2013) was a
successful one, not just because you guys came to the movie night, but because
your comments were so clever, thought-provoking, profound!

Well, the April 2014 screening of LA
GRANDE BELLEZZA (2013) was a
successful one, not just because you guys came to the movie night, but because
your comments were so clever, thought-provoking, profound!
Paolo Sorrentino's film THE
GREAT BEAUTY, winner of the Academy Award for Best Foreign Film 2014, also
gave us the opportunity to expand our discussions in our MAFIA IN THE MOVIES
class.
We compared it with THE
CONSEQUENCES OF LOVE (Le
conseguenze dell'amore, 2004), also by Sorrentino. Moreover, we made
connections with Garrone's GOMORRAH (2008), since both filmmakers are interested in Naples, an extremely complex, problematic and exceptionally creative city.
As usual, movies give us a lot to think about and discuss about, this is why we
like them so much!!!
Have a great summer and enjoy your well-deserved vacation!
