However, when love Two opposites: Marco is very clumsy but sensitive. His father, knocks on their door, the results will be not what Renato, is a confident man - a womanizing Latin lover from the two of them expected. the Southern city of Naples. As the plot develops, the father reveals his secrets to his son: there is a Decalogue for making woman fall in love with any man. A science made of exact rules and patterns proven successful to Renato… But will they work for Marco? 4 | EUROCHANNEL GUIDE | FEBRUARY 2017 | The cast of 10 Rules for Falling in Love is like a sky full of stars. Vincenzo Salemme is a renowned Italian stage actor; Giuglielmo Scilla is a YouTube star known as Willwoosh; and the beautiful Enrica Pintore is a model and actress with plenty of credits on Italian television – she also was amongst the three finalists in the Miss Italy 2003 contest. Eurochannel invites you to discover whether love can be decrypted in a Decalogue, and if Renato’s strategy will work for Marco in his romantic endeavor! Come learn the Decalogue for perfect loving Interview with CRISTIANO BORTONE (Director) How did you come up with the story for this movie? I always scout for new ideas and concepts to make movies. Sometimes stories come in the most unexpected moments. So, it happened that I was having a drink with some friends. Some of them men, some women, some single . And people started making jokes about how men are mistreated when they are young, because women are more mature and look for older and more mature partners. But later on, men become more confident and things reverse. That’s how I thought: “the eternal discussion about seduction and ‘gender war’ is a topic that always raises so much controversy and laughter . There is nothing to do. Except that people can have fun in front of a beer but in the end love really do prevails. And that’s how the idea of a story came to my mind: “It is said that love has no rules, but what if somebody claimed that they actually existed?” Where did the 10 rules come from; what was the process of creating them? The great Stendhal used to say that love is a science. The truth is that, although life is the result of the most unexpected variables, there are some archetypical behaviors. And it is true that ― over time ― we learnt how to detect some signals to anticipate reactions. So, even when it comes to emotions, experience does have some value. When we were youngsters, we all at some point wondered what the right way to approach a girl was, or when is the right moment to try to go for a kiss. EUROCHANNEL GUIDE | FEBRUARY 2017 | 5 With the writing team, we started to assemble the rules . imagining a journey from beginning to a final success. It was a fun exercise that went along with the dramatic twists of the story, because let’s not forget that some of the rules should be absurd and leave room for mistakes and misunderstandings. These 10 creative rules are from a particular point of view, the archetypal Italian macho, but the traditional romance wins for the protagonist. How did you manage to translate that archetype into universal comedy? Although the “10 rules” are somehow part of what is perceived as a Southern macho approach ― which, in the movie, is embodied by our fantastic comedy actor, Salemme ― in the end, they do become universal laws of seduction. Let us think of classics comedies like Cyrano or more modern ones like Hitch or The 40-Year-Old Virgin. The fantasy of logic and experience to prevail over the irrationality of emotions is something universal that resonates in audiences everywhere. And then of course any of the rules is functional to create the premise for a comedy twist in the story. How did you select the actors; what did you want in them? I am normally a very curious person that likes to experiment. Although the genre of this film is a classic comedy, I gave a chance to a somewhat new discovery to star in the movie. Guglielmo Scilla at the time was in fact a very sarcastic web star, with thousands of followers but he had never made a feature before. So, I took my chance translating him from the web to the big screen. Eventually, he also published a book on the 10 rules, which was a big success in Italy. Next to him, his father is a very famous Italian comedian that here plays a much more moving role than he is used to. He was very much praised for that, as many critics perceived for the first time his real potential as an actor. And, of course, we had fun putting together the group of roommates, first among all, the lovely Fatima Trotta, that at the time was the presenter of a very alternative but fun TV comedy show called Made in Sud. Now she has become much more popular. What message did you want to put across with this comedy? I make different kinds of films, some more profound, some more entertaining. When you make a comedy, you firstly want people to laugh. But it is true that 10 Rules also holds a very moving tone that can be seen in many of my films. After all, comedy becomes stronger when it has some moments of intensity and emotions. How would you define your directing style? That’s what I ask myself every day when I look in the mirror. I wonder if that happens to all directors. I would say that I am very curious and I am not afraid of proving myself with something always different. New challenges make our work always exciting. Are you working on any projects at the moment? Can you tell us something about them? I just finished my new film called Coffee. It premiered as a special event at the last Venice Film Festival and now it’s starting its international journey. It’s the first official coproduction between Italy, China and Belgium ― an intense movie connecting three destinies across continents and all linked by the element of . coffee. I would say quite a different set up. But now I am working more and more with China on several projects, including a remake of . 10 Rules! 6 | EUROCHANNEL GUIDE | FEBRUARY 2017 | DIRECTOR Patrizio Gioffredi CAST Gabriele Pini, Xiuzhong Zhang, Carlo DIRECTORMonni, Alessandro Christina GuarientoRosendahl CASTGENRE Peter Comedy, Plaugborg, Drama Søren Malling, ThomasORIG BoINA LarsenL TITLE Sogni di gloria GENREYEAR Thriller 2014 ORIGINAL TITLE Idealisten YEAR 2015 Italy Denmark Premiere: TheCINEMA truth behindFebruary 10tha nuclear at 9:00 PM cover-up in Denmark A two-episode film comedy about Italian customs A movie in two episodes.

  • Masculinity, Stardom, and Italian Cinema 1. the Actresses Listed Were Margherita Buy, Claudia Gerini, and Cristiana Capotondi
    Notes Introduction Trouble Men: Masculinity, Stardom, and Italian Cinema 1. The actresses listed were Margherita Buy, Claudia Gerini, and Cristiana Capotondi. Capotondi was bracketed with regular costar Fabio De Luigi in eighth place. Buy ranked nineteenth and Gerini twenty-third. The top male stars were mostly comics (including Alessandro Siani, Claudio Bisio, Christian De Sica, Checco Zalone, Carlo Verdone, and Antonio Albanese). See Ciak, September 9, 2013. 2. The majority of this criticism has been Anglophone, though see Grignaffini (1988). On Loren, see Gundle (1995a) and Small (2009); on Lollobrigida, see Buckley (2000). Gundle (2007: xix) mentions that male beauty could also be discussed, and cites Malossi’s volume on the figure of the Latin Lover. However, it is interesting that La Cecla in that book admits that “it is difficult to take the Latin Lover seriously” (1996: 26), and he is interpreted as a figure of slightly pathetic comic value, rather than as a symbol of the nation. All trans- lations from Italian are my own, unless otherwise stated. 3. See the cover images for Bondanella (2014), Bertellini (2004), Brunetta (2009), Wood (2005), Sorlin (1996), Brizio-Skov (2011), and Nowell-Smith (1996). 4. De Biasio identifies this as a compensatory move on the part of femi- nism: “The omnipresence and presumed ‘universality’ of men in his- tory, in the arts, in science, in public life, has led to the focusing on women’s identity, lobbying for the rights that were still denied them [ . ] and valorizing their achievements and their contributions to the collective” (2010: 12). 5. Jedlowski says: “While we have an abundant literature on the dif- ferent manifestations and transformations of female identity, reflec- tions on masculinity are, till now, few and far between in Italy” (2009: 11).

  • Paolo Sorrentino's 'Great Beauty' Explores Italy's Decline
    Paolo Sorrentino’s ‘Great Beauty’ Explores Italy’s Decline By RACHEL DONADIO SEPT. 8, 2013 The Italian director Paolo Sorrentino. Gianni Cipriano for The New York Times ROME — There is a striking scene in “The Great Beauty,” Paolo Sorrentino’s luscious new film, in which Jep Gambardella, a perpetually amused, impeccably tailored blocked novelist, looks down on the hulking body of the Costa Concordia cruise ship, which has been lodged off the Tuscan coast since its captain all but sank it there nearly two years ago. The camera pans slowly along the horizon as Jep, played by Toni Servillo, surveys the ship, a larger-than-life metaphor for a career — and a country — run aground. More than any other film to emerge from Italy in recent years, “The Great Beauty” (“La Grande Bellezza”) explores one of the most difficult questions in Italy today: What happened here? How did this country — that has a natural beauty and a culture that are the envy of the world; that produced Federico Fellini and Anna Magnani; that hurtled from poverty to prosperity in a two-decade postwar economic boom; that has been in the avant-garde of art since neorealism, if not Dante — reach the languorous impasse at which it finds itself now? How did it become this strange hothouse where the debate set to begin in Parliament this week revolves around whether applying the rule of law, a conviction against the former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi for tax fraud, puts the country’s stability at risk? Mr. Sorrentino’s film, which has been described as a Technicolor “La Dolce Vita” for the Berlusconi era, doesn’t confront the question directly.

Since the legendary success of his one and only novel, he has been a permanent fixture in the city’s literary and social circles, but when his sixty-fifth birthday coincides with a shock from the past, Jep finds himself unexpectedly taking stock of his life, turning his cutting wit on himself and his contemporaries, and looking past the extravagant nightclubs, parties, and cafés to find Rome in all its glory: a timeless landscape of absurd, exquisite beauty. ON THE GREAT BEAUTY by Piers Handling, Toronto International Film Festival Provocative Italian auteur Paolo Sorrentino reunites with his Il divo star Toni Servillo for this portrait of a world-weary journalist searching for his long-lost idealism while drifting through the dolce vita of Rome’s high spots and fleshpots.

Several directors tried their hand at the idea of a transposition and I, who love cinema, slowly changed my position over the years. In the beginning, I actually did not want to direct the film at all, but only be involved with the writing. Then, over the years, the idea of directing it suggested by Toni Servillo after our first meeting, became a viable hypothesis.
