Cinema Massimo - Tuesday 2 March 2010, 8.30p.m.
The fourth session of the National Cinema Museum’s Permanent Restored Film Festival MAGNIFICENT VIEWINGS/MAGNIFICHE VISIONI will be held in Theatre Three, Cinema Massimo on Tuesday 2 March 2010 at 8.45p.m.
The programme features one of Jacques Tati's best works, Play Time, which will be shown from the copy restored by Les Films de Mon Oncle and Cinémathèque française.
His most expensive film, Tati shot in a 70mm film format with stereophonic sound and built an entire futuristic city in the film studio. François Truffaut defined it as “A film that comes from another planet... the Europe of 1968 filmed by a Martian".
The film will be introduced by the actor/director Carlo Verdone.
