VENICE DAYS OPENING TRAILER USES CINECITTA LUCE ARCHIVES
20/08/2011
The opening trailer for the eight edition of the Venice days, directed by Giorgio Gosetti and taking place August 31 to September 11 within the framework of the Venice Film Festival, is marked by the black and white sheen of Cinecittà Luce’s archives.
For the third consecutive year, the images chosen by the independent section promoted by ANAC and 100Autori is dedicated to the great creators of world cinema. This year however their snapshots are brought to life, animated into memories of important moments in their career and transformed into a real short film. After having given homage to the faces of masters such as Orson Welles and Michelangelo Antonioni, John Ford and Mario Monicelli we well as Jafar Panahi, who featured on the opening trailer for 2010, this year they relive the public moments which have marked the history of cinema. The movie, made possible by the kind collaboration of the historical archive of Cinecittà Luce, rests on the idea of showing the director in the midst of his public, of those generations of viewers, colleagues, technicians and fans whom Venices wishes to rediscover. So we see, for example, Charlie Chaplin and his “landing” at the Lagoon in the 30s or François Truffaut in the crowd of Cannes in ’68, closing the Festival together with the “young Turks” of the Nouvelle Vague.
As always, the Days’ opening trailer includes a “challenge to the viewer”: every shot contains the Days’ official logo. Where might it be?
The music for the Venice Days’ trailer is once again provided courtesy of the Master Ennio Morricone. It is that of the “Battle of Algiers”, in a year in which the Days remember the very relevant lesson of the film and its author, the unforgettable director of the Venice Film Festival and internationally acclaimed artist, who disappeared five years ago.
