What would the film without music?, To accelerate or stop the heart, to make us think or dream forgetting for a moment the reality we live, to take us from laughter to tears and back, of reflection and the obfuscation of bondage to freedom, that is just magic, no criticism at times exaggerated and misplaced although those who are left locked up in that veil of fantasy, where the here and now stopping to untie the highest need of being and existence through heroes and villains trapped in stories that are giving form to what someday the defined even in this field. To Totta the projection booth of Paradise was just that, paradise, the place apart from the problems in the postwar Italian orphan child, a frustrated mother and her passion for the cinema next to his friend Alfredo, the cinema manager . Is the total time of the censure of the kiss, to caress, but the ban makes it more desirable, the charming and seductive and yet innocent pubertuosa Totto. The magic of the cab makes it sound, it is your haven of peace in a world apart outside the conventional, in the rich afternoon while the village priest made a first viewing of the films before being presented to the people, to to remove any content that can be described as "obscene, provocative or libertine", cuts of this censorship, I remember treasuring Alfredo del Paradiso child in the person of the famous director when his death returns you to the people doing break his promise.
gray afternoon, the wind being present on the tracks, on the platform, a blind old man hugs a desperate teenager while whispering in his ear - "This town is cursed. Go away, go away and never come back. And if one day you win the nostalgia and look back ... I do not. Do not touch my door because they'll open. Find something you like and do it, love it as a child loved the cabin of the Cinema Paradiso. From today, I do not want to hear you talk, now I want to hear about you. "-Totto, the boy boards the train and throw the last goodbye to the old, her confidant, her mentor and friend to put away his hand too mother and sister. Noteworthy are the magnificent scene in which Alfredo, seeing the insufficient demand for the room, the movie projected on the facades of the square. And the transition memorable: when Alfred passed his hand over his face child Toto and Toto reveals a teenager who begins to make her first steps in love and taking pictures with their primitive movie camera. A new life full of success awaits you in Rome ... but his heart forever shattered, has been forever in the province of Giancaldo, with Elena, in the Paradiso. In the village hall pass symbolic characters: the passionate to know the script inside and out, the couple is known, love, raise and see their children grow, the village idiot, the kids enthralled with the heroes, lovers having sex on film, caring personal catharsis crying films with their own misfortunes, the pain of migration, class differences and the birth of modern society. Shows the man in the village, dirt spitting refuge in the dark, vendettas, and murder, as if life happened off screen, right there in the cinema hall of the people who contemplate. Morricone hand leads to there, to the nostalgia of childhood, the adventures of the changes, the time when we take to shoulder the stick with the scarf turning around to find our destiny, feeling the rain on his face as projected behind us film our own lives.
So nostalgia in the film collapse as a tribute to those who left the known and familiar in pursuit of a dream promised, but also to those who have lost in the time history of an unfinished love, for whom life is still a beautiful story into the screen, or those who thought that the distance and time were the best cure for pain, external to the final welcome all who have felt strange in the middle of villages known.
For all of them is reserved a seat in the Nuovo Cinema Paradiso ... .. Register
