Ultimo appuntamento della rassegna SHAKESPEARE A HOLLYWOOD. Ben Hecht sceneggiatore con la proiezione, lunedì 29 ottobre , alle ore 15.30 , nella sala eventi della Bibliomediateca, del film La sottana di ferro di Ralph Thomas. Realizzato nel 1956 da Ralph Thomas, il film fu sceneggiato in origine da Ben Hecht che aveva scelto un titolo completamente differente: Not For Money. Svariate vicissitudini produttive e l’arrivo di Bob Hope nel ruolo del co-protagonista (inizialmente assegnato a Cary Grant) causarono non pochi problemi: Hope e i suoi scrittori modificarono intere parti di sceneggiatura tagliando le maggiori scene con la Hepburn e modificando il titolo in The Iron Petticoat. Questa operazione non piacque a Hecht che decise di abbandonare il progetto rifiutandosi persino di apparire nei credits. La commedia, fortemente influenzata da Ninotchka - film del 1939 di Ernst Lubitsch - nonostante l'abbandono di Hecht, conserva, in alcune parti, il “tocco” dello sceneggiatore americano nei classici dialoghi/battibecchi tra i due protagonisti e nell'ironia con cui si prende gioco dei tipici cliché anticomunisti dell'epoca.
