MOVIE AT THE ITALIAN CULTURAL CENTRE

Tonight, August 23, 2009 at 9:00 PM, in the Theatre of the Italian Cultural Centre in Zamalek will be shown the movie
DON CAMILLO,  Director: Julien Duvivier. Starring: Fernandel, Gino Cervi, Franco Interlenghi, Saro Urzì, Leda Gloria, Vera Falqui, Charles Vissière. Comedy, running time: 100 minutes. Italy - France, 1952.
The story is set in Brescello, a small village in the open countryside of Reggio Emilia, where the parish priest and the communist mayor are always fighting to gain leadership of the community. They spend their time thwarting/frustrating each other, even though in the end they always manage to come to a fair (oppure reasonable) compromise/agreement. Don Camillo has a fiery temperament and because of this he is often reprimanded by the Crucifix set in the major altar of the church. Italian with English subtitles.Free Entry.
