Costumes Sorelle Fontana
Auditorium – free admittance
Ahead of the screening, seminar with Luca Guadagnino moderated by Mario Sesti
Taken from a celebrated story by Robert Schekley, a leading light in 1960s science fiction, filmed in Manhattan and Piazza Navona, Rome, beloved of prog rockers in Italy and elsewhere, this film is an inexhaustible source of hyperrealist expressionism in terms of costumes, lighting, sets and acting, which celebrates the triumph of a society indifferent to its own nihilist egoism.
Ursula Andress and Marcello Mastroianni, unreliable, schizoid, luminous and self-deprecating like the comic heroes in a Lichtenstein painting, are fetish icons that wink and slide in the kaleidoscope of images like triplets in a Coltrane solo.
Speaker
Luca Guadagnino director, script writer and producer
Moderator
Mario Sesti journalist and film critic
