DANTE MOVIE TRAILER
ARRIVING FROM ITALY
Straight from Italy comes the trailer for historical movie DANTE from Pupi Avati who both directs and pens the script about famous writer Dante Alighieri. The film was supposed to be released in 2021 to celebrate the 700th
anniversary of Dante's birth but due to delays caused by Covid outbreak, the film is now set to open September 29th in Italy. September 1350. Giovanni Boccaccio (Sergio Castellitto) is commissioned to bring ten gold florins as symbolic compensation to Sister Beatrice, daughter of Dante Alighieri (Alessandro Sperduti), a nun in Ravenna in the monastery of Santo Stefano degli Ulivi. During his long journey, Boccaccio, as well as his daughter, will meet those who, in the last years of Ravenna's exile, sheltered and welcomed the great poet and who, on the contrary, rejected him and put him on the run. Retracing part of Dante's journey from Florence to Ravenna, stopping in the same convents, in the same
villages, in the same castles, in the opening of the same libraries, in the questions he asks and in the answers he gets, Boccaccio reconstructs the human story of Dante, to the point of being able to tell us his entire story.

The Dante film sounds so nteresring, wish it were a miniseries. The same with that view on "mature"Sissi.
ReplyDeleteYou will see the guy who plays Dante in Leonardo series next week, he plays a naughty guy in it.
DeleteI wonder if the breathing exercises were to practice for her tight undergarments. Either way, they clearly didn't work. LOL
ReplyDeleteObviously.
DeleteHow freakin tight did she expect it to get? Was she competing with a piece of paper to see who could be thinner? I felt like I was suffocating just watching those corset strings get yanked repeatedly.
ReplyDeleteBeing thin was the essence of her life, methinks. Funny thing is that Vicky Krieps is the most washed out, bland looking actress, and yet she is supposed to play an icon of beauty???
DeleteI've stopped questioning casting agents choices for such films. It seems lately a lot of bland looking and talented actors and actresses are getting the parts these days.
DeleteTons of them, just look at Austen Butler for example... sweet Bejesus, that guy is both fugly and talentless and will get an Oscar next year the way they are pushing him onto us.
DeleteIt's truly sad, isn't it? They must all be on drugs or high on nepotism.
DeleteNepotism in Hollywood is my biggest peevee
DeleteSo, obsessed was she with her figure that shad custom made a special corset of leather with steel lining. It was an imitation of what Parisians courtesans wore. She eschewed petticoats and undergarments that added bulk and sometimes was sewn into her clothing, so it looked skintight.
ReplyDeleteShe was definitely anorexic. Spent weeks eating nothing but broth and violet sherbets. Then, she was known to binge-eat too, and vomit afterwards. She hated fat people, she referred to her grandchildren as “piglets” because they were chubby.
Lol what a lovely granny she was, but that is an average Hapsburg for you, vile, toxic and ridden with issues, no wonder we killed Franz Ferdinand here in our neck of the woods.... wretched tyrants.
DeleteNow, Gattocito you shouldn’t say “we.” I don’t think you wish to include yourself in the murder of a plebeian mother of three. I don’t know if FF would have been a tyrant, they say he was very open-minded, but the irony is that he was a loving husband and a doting father. His last words were to his dying wife begging her to live for their children.
DeleteSisi, despite her very contemptible flaws, was neither an Hapsburg nor a tyrant. In fact, the one thing these biopics get right is that she was always speaking for one or another minority. But there is something about the Habsburgs doing lousy on the family front. Do you know why Franz Joseph liked Orthodox Jews? He admired their domestic life, sign that he lacked one.
The last emperor blessed Karl was very much in love with and depended emotionally on his wife ZIta. He died young, but he managed to give his eight children a glimpse of family bliss. His son Archduke Otto also had a very successful marriage. The same applies to Franz Ferdinand’s offspring despite being orphans, penniless and (the boys) having to spend some time in Dachau.
Hahaha.... a doting father and loving husband who kept our children starving and enslaved, are you serious, Gattofila? He and his nasty family kept our poor people in Bosnia and Herzegovina like slaves, butchered and oppressed and had the cheek to parade through an enslaved nation in their pompous car? You see only the picture painted by the Western media to cover up their history of enslaving and ruthlessly robbing and killing people in their colonies. They were as vile and evil getting their fortune on the blood and sweat of enslaved proud nations as the British royals.
DeleteI was contemplating keeping this as a private exchange, but you hurl the oddest of accusations in public... It’s my turn to ask, “are you serious?” As I told you before, it’s impossible to hold a conversation with you since you expand the scenario and meander into subjects that were not on the table. Read me please. Was I promoting the Empire as a good idea? Was I denying the Hapsburgs’ guilt as oppressors? Remember that I come from good Italian stock, my ancestors were the oppressed. My mother’s family came from Trieste. Italians had to go to war with Austria to incorporate that city to the kingdom. However, we were talking about the Hapsburgs en famille and about their individual personalities. Being a good family man does not exclude his bad performance as a ruler. Historians and psychiatrist are always baffled by that fact that master criminals and evil dictators can be lovely people in other realms. And pleaseeee! Stop using the West as a bogey man. As I told you privately, you are ten times more West than I’d ever be. You don’t even know what narratives I have been fed all my life, and they certainly weren’t Western.
DeleteYou pretty much tried to paint a picture of a nice daddy and husband of someone whose actions and actions of his family have cost my people millions of lives and you tried to say that I should not be proud that my people have tried to stand up against them in Sarajevo. It would be as if we were talking about the Nazis and I tried to soften them up by saying oh, but some of them were nice parents. You pretty much tried to say I should be ashamed that Gavrilo Princip killed Franz Ferdinand, like he was a criminal to be ashamed of, while he was a proud fighter against the oppressor and a hero for that matter. We are all proud of him and what he did not ashamed, just as you would have been if you suffered under the Hapsburgs like we had.
DeleteMind you I am speaking and was speaking about Franz Ferdinand not Franz Joseph, you might got that wrong as their names are similar.
no, no, no I don't approve of magnicide, but I don't blame Princip. On the other hand it would have sadden me if you had been part of that assasination. I rather see you on a horse crossing the Sava with King Petar. Which by the way is how history lessons in Chile and USA taught me to love your country. I jut feel sorry for Countess Chotek, I do not believe in guilty-by-association. And she took so much garbage from the Hapsburgs.
DeleteI appreciate that you published my comment since i gave you permission to erase it. now on Princip, the one person that almost did a happy dance when he heard of FF's death was Franz Josef
