Federico Fellini used to talk about Giulio Gianini and Emanuele Luzzati's cinema, praising their imaginative design, humorous flair, fairy-tale sense and brilliant graphic solutions.
A precise summary for the art of these two animators, who created a very personal style in which theatre, poetry and draughtsmanship merge admirably into a unique type of cinema, also garnering them two Oscar nominations, for La Gazza Ladra in 1964 and for Pulcinella in 1973.
