From Tuesday 30 July to Thursday 1 August, at 9:30 pm, in the Gardens of Villa Arbusto in Lacco Ameno, three evenings of insights and projections to tell one of the most popular and loved figures of the show of the twentieth century. An Italian cinema, that of the post-war period, which saw De Sica as the absolute protagonist, always with the poignant involvement of a true author and the mastery, refined and popular, of a full interpreter.
Organized in collaboration with the Italian Institute for Philosophical Studies of Naples and the Municipality of Lacco Ameno, the 2024 edition will be curated by prof. Flavio De Bernardinis, Professor of History of cinema and analysis of the cinematographic language at the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia, as well as author of a monograph, “Vittorio De Sica: l’arte della scena” (Fondazione CSC, Luce Cinecittà, Edizioni Sabinae), which focuses not only on the famous films by director and actor, but also on its very important theatrical activity.
