About Me

Italian girl living in the US. Loving it so far.

PhD student in Italian and Film at UCLA. My main research interests are Italian political cinema, issues of Impegno in recent and contemporary Italian , and the representation of the real in the cinema medium. The filmmakers I prefer are (in no particular order): Petri, Rossellini, Wertmuller, Bellocchio, Sorrentino, Garrone, Fellini, Rosi… etc.

Metal girl, ex goth – now tends to be confused. Elegance and timeless class the goals. Driven, determined, yet romantic and often daydreaming. Strong willed and blunt honest, yet somehow sweet. Intelligent, smart cookie. Nerdy and geeky, yet very sociable. Love good wine and cats. Passionate for languages, work, good books and good cinema. Oh, and I dance salsa: all the time.

Latest Update

Paisan

Paisan

A masterpiece. The best film by Rossellini, in my opinion. Its fragmented structure conveys the disorientation of the post WWII years in Italy, as well as the extreme sense of loss and chaos which followed the experience of the civil war and the Resistance. Suspended between documentary and film, Paisan attains the level of symbolic realism, where every element is brutally true and yet has a great symbolic value.
