Venice, September 9 (askanews) – “What I love about Italian sets is the improvisation and the ability to resolve unexpected situations together, with courage.” Luca Marinelli, in competition at the Venice International Film Festival with Andrea Pallaoro's "The Echo Chamber," said this during a masterclass at the Campari Lounge on the Lido, where he spoke about his career and the films he's made over the past 16 years, from "The Solitude of Prime Numbers," released in 2010 and directed by Saverio Costanzo, to today, also reflecting on the Italian and international sets he's worked on. "For me, our way of working is beautiful, sometimes very colorful, but it's beautiful because we're very strong with the unexpected, we're very strong at activating a gigantic and wonderful survival instinct, and this is great, and outside, maybe, when I happened to make a film in Germany, or work with an American crew, I remember that every now and then I'd go to the production and ask for next week's production schedule and they'd tell me they'd given it to me a month ago….
Because in any case we are also used to improvising a little more, but in the most elevated and elegant way of the term – said the actor – and this is a very beautiful thing, which at times can perhaps cause difficulties, but it is very beautiful”. “I find that our way of working, which I like very much, is also and above all this: the courage we have, the whole crew, the courage it has to tackle the film, there are no fundamental problems, and if there are, we all try together to solve them somehow, I like this very much”.
