    Today’s almanac, December 23: The smell of cinema

    Today’s almanac, December 23: The smell of cinema

    On December 23, 1992, Scent of a Woman, directed by Martin Brest, was released in American theaters. The interpretation of Colonel Slade earned Al Pacino the only Oscar of his career: the final scene of the “trial” in the college assembly hall – it must be said – deserved a statuette. The film is the successful remake of the 1974 film of the same name, directed by Dino Risi.

    The director was born on 23 December 1916 in Milan. Before turning to cinema he graduated in Medicine and perhaps it was from his youth studies that he derived that almost “anatomical” taste with which he was able to lay bare the virtues and vices of post-war Italy.

    He was perhaps the main exponent of Italian comedy, author of masterpieces such as The widower, The overtaking, A difficult life, The monsters. The interpreters of the time also helped him: giants like Sordi, Gassman, Tognazzi, Valeri… After the golden age of the 1960s his talent began to run out, even if he scored some other successful titles, such as In name of the Italian people and, indeed, Profumo di donna.
