PIETRO GERMI, IL BRAVO, IL BELLO, IL CATTIVO

Once upon a time there was a man. He was a “shy, quiet man who loved the warm wide embrace of a large room perhaps because it allowed for private solitude”, a suspicious man, who was afraid to cross a square or enter a bar, fearful of finding himself the focus of numerous looks from inquisitive strangers.
Once upon a time there was “an old school director ” who combined a moral and conservative approach to filmmaking, with scrupulous professionalism, skillful craftsmanship of the language of images, respect for the public’s wishes and a belief in “communicating with the masses”. This is the cinematographic journey of “Pietro Germi: The good, the beautiful, the ugly”.
