    06-De Luca_0Syrimis 2/10/14 10:28 AM Page 85 I BAMBINI E NOI : L’INFANZIA NEL CINEMA DI LUIGI COMENCINI GIOVANNA DE LUCA Riassunto : Padre per antonomasia dei bambini del cinema italiano, Luigi Comencini ha dedicato tredici film all’infanzia ripercorrendo l’evoluzione storico sociale del paese dal secondo dopoguerra fino agli anni 90. Questo saggio si propone di investigare, attraverso l’analisi di alcuni dei film più esemplari del regista, due temi ricorrenti del discorso comenciniano sull’in - fanzia: la coesistenza nel bambino di una dipendenza dall’adulto e un desi - derio di autonomia e l’esplorazione dell’ambiguo rapporto padre/figlio. L’eclettico Luigi Comencini, regista-architetto italiano-francese, ha attra - versato la storia del cinema italiano camaleonticamente, rappresentando con sguardo semplice e razionale la condizione umana soprattutto attra - verso i bambini, espressione artificiosa di quella umanità che era desidero - so di raccontare. Spaziando tra cinema-documentario, neorealismo rosa, commedia all’italiana e cinema dell’infanzia, Comencini è stato il regista italiano testimone delle diverse fasi e tendenze del cinema nazionale, riper - correndo l’evoluzione del Paese dal secondo dopoguerra fino agli anni 90. Il tema dell’infanzia in particolare ha un posizione rilevante nella copiosa produzione artistica del regista. Tra documentari, film televisivi e film per il grande schermo annotiamo: I bambini in città (1946), Heidi (1952), La Finestra sul luna park (1956), Incompreso (1967), Infanzia, vocazione e prime esperienze di Giacomo Casanova (1969), I bambini e noi (1970), Le avventure di Pinocchio (1972), Voltati Eugenio ( 1980), Cuore (1984), La sto - ria (1986), Un ragazzo di Calabria (1987), Tutti i bambini ..

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Misery is the True Script for Comedy: A Study of Italian Film Comedy in the 1950s A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Italian by Christopher Burton White 2014 © Copyright by Christopher Burton White 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Misery is the True Script for Comedy: A Study of Italian Film Comedy in the 1950s by Christopher Burton White Doctor of Philosophy in Italian University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Thomas J. Harrison, Chair This dissertation fills a lacuna in the history of Italian cinema, formally analyzes a selection of significant film comedies from the 1950s, and challenges many of the assumptions that have been made about postWar Italian cinema. The conservative atmosphere of the fifties, the detrimental effects of censorship on Italian cinema, and the return of popular genres after the end of the widely-acclaimed neorealist period have led to assumptions about a limited engagement With contemporary Italian society in the motion pictures produced in Italy during the 1950s. While most critics and film historians vieW these years in Italian cinema as the disappointing aftermath of neorealism, a decade in Which conservative elements in Italian society pushed national cinema in the direction of facile optimism and escapism, this dissertation demonstrates that many comedies in fact engaged with Italian society, ii offering incisive critiques of contemporary Italy that pinpoint and satirize hypocrisy, inequality, and a host of other ills of the Italian republic in the 1950s. This study considers existing scholarship on Italian cinema and reevaluates films starring the popular Neapolitan actor Antonio De Curtis (Totò), Renato Castellani’s Due soldi di speranza (Two Cents Worth of Hope, 1952) and other examples of neorealismo rosa (rosy or pink neorealism), and the movies directed by Federico Fellini featuring Alberto Sordi, both in terms of aesthetics as well as subject matter.

  • 1 Revisiting the Past As a Means of Validation: Bridging the Myth of The
    1 Revisiting the Past as a Means of Validation: Bridging the Myth of the Resistance and the Satire of the Economic Miracle in Two Comedies “Italian style” Giacomo Boitani, National University of Ireland, Galway Abstract: Many commedia all’italiana filmmakers have acknowledged the neorealist mode of production as a source of inspiration for their practice of pursuing social criticism in realistic and satirical comedies between 1958 and 1977. The detractors of the genre, however, have accused the commedia filmmakers of “diluting” the neorealist engagement to a simple description of the habits of Italians during the Economic Miracle, a description which threatened to encourage, through the casting of popular stars, the cynical attitude it sought to satirise. In this article, I shall discuss how two commedia all’italiana directors, namely Dino Risi and Ettore Scola, produced two significant commedie, respectively Una vita difficile (1961) and C’eravamo tanto amati (1974), which bridged the Resistance setting, associated with neorealism, and the Economic Miracle setting of most commedie all’italiana in order to reaffirm their neorealist roots, thus revisiting the past as a response to the critical underestimation from which their cinematic practice suffered. Many filmmakers of the comedy “Italian style” genre (commedia all’italiana) have acknowledged Italian neorealism as a source of inspiration for their practice of pursuing social criticism in realistic and satirical comedies produced in the years between 1958 and 1977. For instance, comedy “Italian style” star Alberto Sordi said that of those involved in the genre that “our project was to reinvent neorealism and to take it in a satirical direction” (Giacovelli, Un italiano 110),1 while director Marco Ferreri stated that “the commedia is neorealism revisited and modified in order to make people go to the movies” (Giacovelli, Commedia 21).

    The Museum of Modern Art VITTORIO DE SICA The French film critic Andre Bazin wrote of Vittorio De Sica, "To explain De Sica, we must go back to the source of his art, namely, his tenderness, his love. The quality shared in common by Miracle in Milan and The Bicycle Thief...is the author's inexhaustible affection for his characters." Born in 1902 in Sora, near Rome, Vittorio De Sica spent his early years in Naples. His father, Umberto De Sica, was a bank clerk and former journalist who knew many show business people and used these contacts to launch his son's career. In his teens De Sica made his screen debut and was popular as a singer of Neapolitan songs in amateur entertainments. De Sica studied accounting in Rome and completed his military service before taking a job in a theater company. He progressed from playing clowns and old men to leading roles in romantic comedies, and by 1930 he was a matinee idol. Throughout the thirties, he teamed frequently with director Mario Camerini, the most prestigious Italian director of the era, in a series of lighthearted films such as I'd Give a Million (1935). In the years 1940-42, De Sica directed several minor films in the "white telephone" film genre, developing his directorial and technical skills. In 1943 he directed The Children are Matching Us, which he wrote with Cesare Zavattini. It launched a life-long collaboration between the two that was instrumental in the development of neorealism. - more - 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y.

    PATRIZIA BETTELLA COLLODI'S PUPPET IN FILM: DISNEY, COMENCINI, BENIGNI Geppetto's initial wish in Collodi's Le avventure di Pinocchio was to build a wonderful puppet who could perform acrobatics and help him earn a liv- ing touring the world. Ho pensato di fabbricarmi da me un bel burattino di legno; ma un burat- tino meraviglioso, che sappia ballare, tirare di scherma e fare i salti mor- tali. Con questo burattino voglio girare il mondo, per buscarmi un tozzo 1 di pane e un bicchier di vino . Since Geppetto created Pinocchio with performance and entertain- ment in mind, it is not surprising to note how much interest the boy-pup- pet has attracted in cinema, theatre, and television. Cinema and television have given Pinocchio undivided attention for almost a century. Data shows that the story of the puppet generated approximately twenty feature film adaptations, 2 to which one should add the European co-production direct- ed by Steve Barron ( 1 996) and, of course, Roberto Benigni's Pinocchio, released in October 2002. Pinocchio the character attracts the media and continues to inspire cinema. It is worth noting, for example, Federico Fellini's predilection for Pinocchio—although he may have viewed the story of the puppet as a nightmare—and the presence of motifs from Collodi's story in many of his films. 3 Pinocchio has had a large impact in Collodi, Le avventure di Pinocchio, p. 8. Data from Laura, "Pinocchio nel cinema mondiale." ^One could mention the presence of a Collodian big fish/whale in Casanova, the attraction for the circus and automata in numerous of Fellini's films, or the direct association of actor Roberto Benigni to Pinocchio in his last film La voce della luna.
