Bertolucci - Upcoming Projects

Upcoming Projects

Bertolucci is said to be working on a historical romance centering on 16th-century classical musician (and murderer) Carlo Gesualdo.

Bertolucci's next feature film will be an adaptation of Niccolò Ammaniti's young-adult's book Io e te (You and Me), originally set to be filmed in 3D. The screenplay for the movie was written by Bertolucci himself, Umberto Contarello and Niccolò Ammaniti, and expected to release late 2012. Bertolucci later changed his mind about shooting in 3D, calling the idea "vulgarly commercial".

Famous quotes containing the word projects:

    But look what we have built ... low-income projects that become worse centers of delinquency, vandalism and general social hopelessness than the slums they were supposed to replace.... Cultural centers that are unable to support a good bookstore. Civic centers that are avoided by everyone but bums.... Promenades that go from no place to nowhere and have no promenaders. Expressways that eviscerate great cities. This is not the rebuilding of cities. This is the sacking of cities.
    Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
