Depero: Rovereto, New York and Other Stories
Depero: Rovereto, New York and Other Stories is the first documentary film focused on the artist from Trentino, Fortunato Depero. The film investigates the figure of a man who was able to go beyond the codified circuits of the art world: his work ranges from painting to theater, from set design to photography, the applied arts to opera on radio, publishing and advertising design. Fortunato Depero was rediscovered in the late seventies and re-evaluated in the nineties thanks to the attention dedicated to him by some scholars and the keen interest of his works by French and American audiences who saw in him the most significant artist of the Futurist movement.

The Strokes: New York Stories
New York’s finest, The Strokes have been hailed as the ‘saviours of rock and roll’, and are more than proving themselves worthy of the hype. Since exploding onto the scene these east coast reprobates have given rock music the kick it was so badly in need of. Not only have they won the hearts and minds of the music press and alternative crowd, they have also crossed over into the mainstream without sacrificing any of their credibility. The Strokes ‘New York Stories’ now tells the complete story behind the band’s success for the first time. Using interviews with their closest colleagues and footage throughout their career, this is a great addition to every fan’s collection.

The ‘New York, New York’ Stories
Made in 2005, this documentary traces the history of NY, NY, beginning with the formation of the producing partnership between Irwin Winkler and Robert Chartoff. It was they who developed the initial script with writer Earl Rauch. Winkler met Scorsese at a screening of Mean Streets, and when Scorsese heard that Winkler was developing a script set in the “big band” era, he asked to read it. Winkler and Chartoff discuss casting, and Scorsese and Kovacs discuss the look of the film. Editor Tom Rolf notes the irony (some might say the injustice) that Minnelli, who brought Kander & Ebb into the project, did not have a hit with the title song, which wasn’t even nominated for an Oscar. It didn’t get noticed until two years later, when Frank Sinatra recorded it. Today most people probably don’t realize it was written for a movie.
