"You do not need to know by heart the poems of Leopardi to go see this movie, you can –said the director in an interview to the Italian news agency Ansa- not know him at all. This is the story of a special and immense man, complex in its contradictions, a revolutionary fighting for his freedom against the cages that life puts in front of all of us in the family, at work and in the society. Most of us come to terms with these constraints, it makes us wear masks, but he prefers to break them and live a full life, at the cost of misery in return. "And so, rediscover Leopardi, know him in depth "is to make a journey even within ourselves." Martone has started that journey a long time ago, in Venice he said that he thought he had always done "Leopardian movies, from glacial Tango in 1982, for theur themes and essence." And the script, signed by Ippolita Di Majo, has become a book (Mondadori Electa), out on Tuesday, 14th October . The lyrics of the film are all related to the writings of Leopardi's poems, the Zibaldone, the Moral Tales, and the whole of his letters, a type of treasure chest through which to explore his life, from his youth in Recanati with whole days of study in the library of his father, to Naples with the composition of the Broom, his poetic testament.
The film, starring the acclaimed Elio Germano, is particularly aimed at young people who may feel just near the rebel youth. "The theme of rebellion and diversity makes it close to us - on the set Martone called him a 'Kurt Cobain of ' 800 '- but at the same time immortal because in his poems, as in life, everything is autobiographical, said Leopardi, man is always there. "Germano, who has thrown himself headlong into an undertaking from which it comes up with an applauded interpretation , prepared "Giacomo" –he called him only by the name - studying for 3-4 months before the filming, "a true luxury for Italian cinema "and almost" did not want to go on set to continue studying it. ""An actor - he says - can only dream of being able to get in such a life in an infinite world so rich that every time you approach it changes you. Leopardi teaches us to live our feelings, our illusions and I had to return all that in flesh: it was not easy. "Germano fell in love with Leopardi, "because all his life and his works lie in the inadequacy as people. And to me, that I'm an actor almost to defend myself from my feeling inadequate, that is what is at heart more than anything. "
