Italian Masters movie at Hanoi Cinematheque

16 – 29 Apr
Cinematheque

Some movies are so great that they can be seen time and time again – and often appreciated more with each viewing. Our next series features some of the greatest movies ever made – Italian “neo-realist” classics from master directors Rossellini, De Sica, Visconti, Fellini and Pasolini. If you’ve seen these movies once, here is a chance to enjoy them again – with new prints on a big screen. And if you have missed any, all we can say is that every one of these films is “required viewing” for any lover of world cinema!

Please note that most of these films will be shown with Vietnamese audio option (earphone translation), so bring your Vietnamese friends to experience these great movies. For this series only, members may bring non-members to introduce them to Hanoi Cinematheque.
