Italian director Giuseppe Tornatore's masterpiece celebrates cinema and romance with a tale of star-crossed lovers in a film about movies. Cinema Paradiso explores Salvatore Da Vita's lifelong story from his early childhood years as a young Sicilian boy in love with movies until he triumphs as a Cinecitta film-maker in Rome.
What happens in between is a poignant coming of age tale shaped by the girl who breaks his heart and Alfredo; the town's projectionnist who teaches all about the magic of movies.
Tornatore's Oscar-winning picture is an ode to cinema and a timeless classic that has inspired me to write about my passion for movies.
My New Cinema Paradiso is all about the heart-stopping films, jaw-dropping stories and eye-popping movie stars that will grace the London screens in the following months.
Get ready...Lights, action, camera!
