the Reporters episode 3 #5

the Reporters episode 3 #5

The adventures of The reporters (new episode #3), two T. V. journalists whose jobs lead them to come up against major and minor dramas.

To give an idea of the style, their stories resemble the T. V. series Hill Street Blues and N.Y. Police Dept. Besides the story, the human side of the main characters and their interpersonal relationships are developed.

rep03_05ITA

 

The main characters:

Harry, the eldest, once a newspaper reporter (like Lou Grant) changed over to T. V. during the Vietnam period. His thorny character keeps him away from office work and leads him to work out and about with his colleague Allen. Divorced, his wife Linda does not want to see him so he communicates through their daughter Kay, who lives with him.

Allen, Harrys young colleague, whose experience so far has been in television, has been teamed up with the older man to learn the trade. More easy-going and lighter-hearted, a sense of genuine affection binds him to Harry and his feelings for Kay go even deeper.

Kay, Harrys 18 years old daughter is her sophomore year of college majoring in English literature. Even though she has nothing to do with the work of her father and Allen, she seems to fit in with them perfectly. She longs to eventually become a script writer and her closeness to Hollywood is for her a constant inspiration. She is not unaware of Allens shy advances but she keeps him at a distance while at the same time stringing him along.

Four episodes made so far:

1) An elderly rival journalist, who feels his life is passing before him without his having accomplished anything, gets into serious trouble by trying to murder someone so as to be able to do a good deed.

2) Misguided young journalist friend of Allens pointlessly needles the powers that be of the gangster world by creating a fake scoop.

3) Harry passes up a scoop so as not to ruin the few remaining months left in the life of an elderly actor forced to make soap operas to survive.

4) Kay, attracted by the movie world, meets a director but her life is endangered by the mans mental instability, brought to a peak by  divorce.

Informazioni in tempo reale. Per assurdo, notizie quasi in anticipo. Chi può fermare questo processo-progresso? Chissà dove porterà l’uomo. Eppure il mondo ha necessità di fare piccole pause per riflettere e guardarsi attorno. Magari anche per sorridere, ironizzare, sognare. Ecco che il “matrimonio” tra visione reale e immaginazione funziona ancora. Il cinema e il fumetto. Due invenzioni che hanno alla loro origine l’arte della creatività.

Sciuscia the movie & the comic book

Sciuscia movie, Shoeshine (Italian: Sciuscià [ʃuʃˈʃa], from Italian pronunciation of the English) is a 1946 Italian film and the first major work directed by Vittorio De Sica. In it, two shoeshine boys get into trouble with the police after trying to find the money to buy a horse. Shoeshine is among the first of the Italian neorealist films. In 1948, it received an Honorary Award at the Academy Awards for its high quality. This award was the precursor of what would later become the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoeshine_(film)

Vittorio De Sica 7 July 1901 – 13 November 1974) was an Italian director and actor, a leading figure in the neorealist movement.

Four of the films he directed won Academy Awards: Sciuscià and Bicycle Thieves were awarded honorary Oscars, while Ieri, oggi, domaniand Il giardino dei Finzi Contini won the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar. Indeed, the great critical success of Sciuscià (the first foreign film to be so recognized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences) and Bicycle Thieves helped establish the permanent Best Foreign Film Oscar. These two films generally are considered part of the canon of classic cinema.[1] Bicycle Thieves was cited by Turner Classic Movies as one of the 15 most influential films in cinema history.
