Fact checking on what is seen in the film about the last months of the socialist leader’s life, played by Pierfrancesco Favino
of Arianna Ascione
The truth is usually harder than fantasy, for a while Gianni Amelio was able to bring it back to that tragedy and I hope that this film is able to make us think: this is how Stefania Craxi, interviewed by Radio Cusano Campus, described Hammamet, the film by Gianni Amelio who tells the last months of his father Bettino’s life (played by Pierfrancesco Favino). Even if it is based on a political and human (real) story, the film – which can be seen on Friday 25 June on Sky Cinema Drama at 14.55 – is not intended to be a biopic, so it inevitably has some differences with reality. Stefania for example s present, played by Livia Rossi, but her name was changed (in Anita, from Anita Garibaldi passion of the socialist leader). His brother Bobo also appears (Alberto Paradossi gives him his face): his relationship with the statesman is much more conflicting. My father’s story cannot be absorbed in two hours of cinema, but the script touches the heart. Even if it doesn’t match reality. Let’s say that Gianni Amelio took some poetic license. For example on my sister: Stefania had a form of remorse, for having been distant in those years, but I understand that in the story the father-daughter relationship works better, the politician explained to Corriere.
