Martin Scorsese meets the audience

Tuesday May 30^th, Martin Scorsese, one of the greatest directors in the history of the seventh art, will be a guest of Casa del Cinema. 

The American master filmmaker will be the protagonist of an encounter with the audience that will be held at 9:00 pm at the Teatro Ettore Scola, the large outdoor arena immersed in the park of Villa Borghese. The event, for which admission will be free while seats are available, will take place on the occasion of the screening of Mean Streets, one of the filmmaker’s masterpieces.

During the event, Scorsese will present the film series “Carta bianca” to the audience, which will be held at Casa del Cinema through June 4^th in collaboration with the Cineteca di Bologna. The programme, curated by the master himself, will centre on five double features: to each title from his remarkable filmography, Scorsese has matched a film that has been a source of inspiration for his work. 

May 30^th will be a day dedicated entirely to Martin Scorsese: starting at 11 am, the two main theatres of Casa del Cinema (Cinecittà and Fellini) will host the screening of the masterclass, reserved to the students of CSC – Scuola Nazionale di Cinema, that the director will hold the day before, Monday May 29^th,, organised in collaboration with Fondazione Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia. Admission into the theatres of Casa del Cinema will be free upon presentation of a coupon that may be collected thirty minutes before the beginning of the screening.
