Aleksandr Ptushko
Aleksandr Lukich Ptushko (russian: Александр Лукич Птушко, – 6 March 1973) was a Soviet animation and fantasy film director, and a People's Artist of the USSR (1969). Ptushko is frequently (and somewhat misleadingly) referred to as "the Soviet Walt Disney," due to his prominent early role in animation in the Soviet Union, though a more accurate comparison would be to Willis O'Brien or Ray Harryhausen. Some critics, such as Tim Lucas and Alan Upchurch, have also compared Ptushko to Italian filmmaker Mario Bava, who made fantasy and horror films with similarities to Ptushko's work and made similarly innovative use of color cinematography and special effects. He began his film career as a director and animator of stop-motion short films, and became a director of feature-length films combining live-action, stop-motion, creative special effects, and Russian mythology. Along the way he would be responsible for a number of firsts in Russian film history (including the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Salerno Film Festival

History "CINE CLUB SALERNO", a non-profit association of cinematographic culture, was born in 1945 from a group of “friends for the skin,” which had an ambitious program: that of promoting culture through cinema. Thus, in 1946, the 1st NATIONAL EXHIBITION OF CINEMA A PASSO RIDOTTO was born. The Film Festival of Salerno had its first event in 1946, when it happened to be the first festival of the so-called movement of "reduced step," that lowered all 35 mm movies to 16 mm ones, for a more comfortable spreading. That historical edition was attended, among others, by Vittorio De Sica, Rossano Brazzi, Adriana Benetti, Maria Mercader, Mariella Lotti. On that occasion, the projections were held not only in Salerno but also in Cava de' Tirreni, Positano and Amalfi. Since its first edition, the festi ...
