Torino 2010

When, a few days ago, the usual press conference revealed the program is the Torino Film Festival 2010 was felt a strange sensation. Maybe I'm wrong, but the impression is that the quality of the choices have surprised a lazy press and the empty Roman hypertrophy (specious) arguments post-Venezia. As if the festival in Turin was a bolt from the blue which, with its promise of quality, arrived to disrupt the cards of those who had already made all possible budgets over the year.

Of course we must wait for the final edition, but even now it can be argued that such a surprise can only come from those who continue to underestimate the best film festival in Italy, an event that over the years has not never made any secret of prefer the quality and diversification of the names. Even though this time there: the coup to bring the highly anticipated The Ward John Carpenter I have already written (and the Master is also dedicated video from the Network of the week in the right column). Add time to close the huge entrusted with the new Clint Eastwood Hereafter! Other than the unnecessary dribbling of romavenezia Malick on yes / no Malick. The director of The Thin Red Line is an institution and no one could ever dream of to call it negligible, but there is much more cinemas in the face of these ridiculous catchy was literally put part. Here, I like to think that since the 2010 Turin Film Festival will return to the center of the things that matter, outside of everything.

So John Huston retrospective (which alone would be enough to close every speech), the "Confidential Report" dedicated to horror (finally back in the great sweep of the dark period after fasting Moretti), the program " waves "that promises to spark controversial THE Zombie without forgetting the proper tribute to his friend Corso Salani . Finally, the film represented an interesting Italian Alessandro Piva and for those who just can not do without a touch of glamor , here's a preview of Burlesque with pop star Christina Aguilera.

short, a powerful program, which others had a fun rattling off all the figures. Already, powerful: maybe a festival that has such a generous tradition of great cinema and great discoveries can also leave a moment from running hypertrophy, which seems fairly typical of those who must demonstrate its importance only by the numbers. It 'the only criticism prior that I can do. For the rest of the meeting room in the shadow of the Mole is renewed this year. And this is important.
