21° TORINO FILM FESTIVAL
Stavros Tornes, Greek and Italian Filmmaker
Stavros Tornes attore senza finzione (antologia)
by Sergio Grmek Germani
An editing realized as a
complement to this retrospective, made by Sergio Grmek Germani together
with the editorial staff of Fuori Orario. We want to follow the presence
of Tornes until his smallest roles in Greek and Italian films. A
presence that often reveals the nature of a film and is symptomatic of a
disorientation in the productive functioning. Besides his appearances
with Rossellini, Monicelli, Rosi... we wanted to document his presence
behind other bodies, his Greek castings for Kazan and
Cacoyannis.
