Bertolucci biography
The latest news biography is the classic of cinema Bernardo Bertolucci did not learn directing at the institutes, but the tape of the Italian master - the treasury of art. The recognition of the films was not prevented by the author’s exotic views, representing the explosive mixture of Marxism, Buddhism and Freudianism. Childhood and youth the great director was born in the year in northern Italy, in the city of Parma, based on a new era.
Bernardo had two brothers wearing the names widespread in the country: the elder Giovanni and the younger Giuseppe. Both became cinema figures. Bernardo Bertolucci in his youth - a professor, a film critic and a poet - took a young Bernardo not only for premiere shows of ribbons, but also for filming. Mother worked as a teacher and also encouraged her son’s interest in cinema.
An interesting fact: in early youth, the future Oscar -winning director wanted to become a poet and even received 2 literary awards, and also studied philosophy at the University of Roman. However, Sinefilia defeated the other hobbies of the young man. At 21, Bernardo throws a university to make the first full -length film. By this moment, in Bertolucci’s biography there were already amateur tapes and work as an assistant in Pazolini's paintings.
Films are the first full -length Bertolucci “Bow Kuma” - a detective thriller about the murder of “Night Babka”. The ribbon “Before the revolution”, removed after 2 years, is much further from the cinematic mainstream - this is the modernized interpretation of Streaml’s novel “Parm abode”, telling about the young man who, protesting against bourgeois morality, tears relations with the bride and enters into touch with the aunt.
Director Bernardo Bertolucci further in Bertolucci’s filmography is followed by a mysterious picture of the insanity of the Partner Sinefil and the fascinating tape “Spider Strategy” - the director’s first appeal to the study of fascism sources. In the “strategy” the boundaries between the past and the present, truth and fiction are blurred, and Verdi's music constantly sounds behind the scenes.
The plot of the tape somewhat resembles the plot of the then not yet shot movie "Once in America." The world -famous painting “Conformist” was shot by Bertolucci after joining the Communist Party. The director makes the audience feel like participants in fascist crimes. A large role in the plot is played by sexual inversions of heroes. Marlon Bernardo Bertolucci and Maria Schneider, on the set of the film “The Last Tango in Paris”, The Erotic Thrilor Trino Trino Tango Tango Tango, received 2 Oscar nominations, but both performers of the main roles - Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider - claimed to be humiliated by the director.
The tape is mentioned in the picture of another Oscar -winning laureate Vladimir Menshov “Envy of the Gods”. The Italian court forbade the rental of the film, sentenced the director by a conditional term and for 5 years deprived of the right to participate in the elections. The next masterpiece of Bertolucci was the epic tape “Twentieth Century” lasting minutes, telling about the friendship of a simpleton and a hereditary aristocrat against the background of the era.
The main roles were played by Gerard Depardieu and Robert de Niro. The film shocked the audience with an episode of double masturbation of the main characters. Bernardo Bertolucci, Robert de Niro and Gerard Depardieu, on the set of the film “Twentieth Century”, was marked by the filming of the “tragedy of a ridiculous person”, in which the owner of the cheese plant is tormented by the need to pay a ransom for a stolen son.
Bertolucci's next 3 paintings were shot in exotic countries for Europeans. This is the 9th Oscars The Last Emperor’s tape, whose consultant was the brother of the monarch, shot in Africa the film “Under the Protection of Heaven”, which remained unhappy with the author of the original source - the classic of American literature Paul Bowles, and the polarization of the foundations of Buddhism “Little Buddha”.
Keanu Reeves and Bernardo Bertolucci on the set of the film "Little Buddha" Picture, approved by the Dalai Lama, tells about the search for the next reincarnation of the Buddha. The film is interesting by the game Keanu Reeves and the first shootings in Butan in the history of cinema. For a role in the tape, actor Chris Isaac is nominated for the Golden Raspberry anti -aircraft. In the film “Upling Beauty”, the heroine Liv Tyler finds out who is her biological father, and dreams of intimacy with a person who gave her a kiss 4 years ago.
It is curious that the artist herself found out who her father was only at 9 years old. Bernardo Bertolucci on the set of the film "Dreamers" praises beauty and youth. Two guys and a girl against the backdrop of a student revolution in the French capital enjoy freedom and erotic joys, rejecting bourgeois morality. This is the youngest, in the sensation, Bertolucci's film.
In the picture, the future "Bond Girl" Eva Green debuted. A photo confirming the labor heroism of Bernardo has been preserved. The tape talks about a teenager experiencing difficulties in communication. Bernardo's personal life entered into marriage twice, but both unions did not bring children to the cinema.Bernardo Bertolucci and his first wife Adrian Asti, the first companion of life - the Italian artist Adrian Asti - was 8 years older than the filming in Bertolucci’s film “Before the Revolution”, Lukino Visconti about the Rocco boxer already flashed in the star tape of Lukino.
The family union lasted 5 years. The second wife is a screenwriter and director, a native of Tanzania Claire Piplou. This marriage withstood the test of time and lasted 40 years, to the death of Bertolucci. Bernardo Bertolucci and his second wife Claire Piplou as a whole about the director’s personal life, sentenced to a conditional time “for immorality” is not known.
The filmmaker is attributed to an affair with the artist Maria Paola Mino. Bernardo was an enthusiastic person, but fell in love not so much into people as in ideas - worshiped Marxism and Freudianism, from atheism professed in his youth, went to Buddhism. But Bertolucci's main passion was cinema. The titanium of Italian cinema belongs to a number of bright aphorisms. The filmmaker believed that “there is no love, there are only confirmations of this feeling”, and prohibitions provoke people to fight boredom.
The death from the beginning of X as a result of an unsuccessful operation on the spine of Bertolucci turned into a wheelchair user. After several years of despair and reclusion, the director returned to the cinema and shot his lightest ribbons. In recent years, Bernardo Bertolucci in recent years, the classic in an interview said that he wanted to marry the summer anniversary of the next cinematic premiere.
But these plans did not come true. Bernardo died in September, the cause of death was cancer. Bertolucci considered the year of the death of composer Giuseppe Verdi the actual beginning of the 20th century. The death of Bernardo marked the end of a century sung in the movie with a brilliant self -taught.
