(Adnkronos) - Gabriele Salvatores torna oggi al cinema con 'Napoli New York’. Il regista porta sul grande schermo (con 01 Distribution) una favola nata dopo essere entrato in possesso di una storia scritta da Federico Fellini e Tullio Pinelli, alla fine degli Anni '40, di cui si sapeva poco e niente. Un 'trattamento-sceneggiatura' di 80 pagine che il regista ha trasformato in un film sulla solidarietà.

00:00Look, Celestine, did you see this? It's the time of the year.
00:03It's the time of destiny.
00:05Let's go.
00:08We're in America, Carmen.
00:10We're in New York, Daniella.
00:15Good luck, you little bastard.
00:17Toys love you.
00:31How beautiful!
00:33Pomeranians and Pompeians.
00:35Hey, come here!
00:37You know it's illegal, don't you?
00:39Even starving is illegal.
00:41Deep down, I believe that the human beings who govern this country,
00:46that live in this country, are better than the few who govern it.
00:50And among those who live in this country,
00:53there are many who are willing to help each other, in my opinion.
00:57Maybe I live in an abyss, but I don't think it's like that.
01:05The word welcome has been used and abused so much
01:11that it has probably ceased to tell us about that heat
01:16that means when it rains outside, you open a door
01:19and you also allow a stranger to enter to get ready.
01:22It seems to me to have happened on a planet I no longer know.
01:27Or maybe aliens have arrived and I can't understand what they want.
01:37It's not easy.
01:39No, in my opinion, Italy is very divided at the moment.
01:43And unfortunately, those who govern us are playing on this
01:47and it's something they shouldn't do.
01:50I mean, those who govern, just like an organizer of a film,
01:54let's put it this way, or as a director,
01:58you have to unite people, you have to solve problems,
02:01a producer has to produce,
02:03make sure the film has a good ending.
02:09And so, even politicians should theoretically forget
02:13their narrow ideological ideas, etc.,
02:18and be unifiers of a country.
02:21Instead, they are dividing us more and more
02:24and it's very dangerous.
02:27Very dangerous, especially in an international situation like this.
02:34These last signals coming from the United States,
02:38the American dream, are becoming a bit of a nightmare.
02:42They are disturbing, because if the economic power,
02:46the most rich man in the world,
02:48ends up in the political power, we're done.
02:51So, let's remember that we are human beings,
02:55that we can, even if we talk to someone who is different from us,
03:01who maybe scares us,
03:04but if we know him up close, you can love him,
03:08but you can't love something you don't know.
03:11And if you stop there and say,
03:13he's different from me, so I don't care, you're screwed.
03:17Human solidarity should be regarded as its own power.
03:22I believe in this.
03:25I do what I can for what concerns me.
03:29I don't back down.
03:31But I think that we, people who don't govern anything,
03:39have a great power if we just get together and realize it.
03:44And I think it's a power that can be used in one way or another,
03:49like all powers.
03:51I hope that it will be used for good.
03:54And that people discover the fact that others,
03:59even if they have different ideas from you...
04:04Yesterday I was at dinner with a Legista distributor,
04:09who is not really my political party, but it doesn't matter,
04:13but she was a smart and nice person.
04:18It was a pleasant dinner.
04:21So, a little bit of willingness.
04:25If people start to discover that others are our salvation,
04:31no one can be saved on their own.
04:33Many people have said that, but it's true.
