Genoa, 6 September 2023 – A thread runs through the history of cinema – the blue denim thread. From September 12 to October 6, 2023, the Sivori and Ariston theaters in Genoa will host the “Cinema in Blue Jeans” show, organized by Circuito with the participation of the Municipality of Genoa. It was conceived as a preliminary stage of the GenovaJeans event, scheduled from 5 to 8 October in the historic center of the city, with the aim of presenting Genoa as the new center of the new generation denim community, highlighting the historical and cultural value of jeans to the city to which it owes its name, in order to encourage responsible production and consumption of textiles to protect the planet and spread the culture of reuse and recycling.
Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable, Olivia Newton-John, John Travolta, Jake Gyllenhaal, Heath Ledge, John Savage: many stars are immortalized in fabric born in Genoa, trousers, jackets, shirts, iconic clothing designed for sailors and miners, promoted by fashion heroes middle of the last century.
Jeans as a tool of seduction, teenage wear, a symbol of protest, workwear, even killer jeans: these are just some of the possible interpretations of blue canvas pants that can be seen in the films selected for review: Misfits by John Huston (September 12 in Sivori) , “Grease” by Randal Kleiser (September 19 in Sivori), “Brokeback Mountain” by Ang Lee (September 26 in Sivori), “Hair” by Milos Forman (October 5 in Ariston) , “Slaxx” by Elsa Kefart (October 6 in Ariston) .
All films will be presented by journalist Renato Tortarolo.
On September 12 at 21.15 at the Sivori cinema (Salita Santa Caterina 54r.) the exhibition will begin with John Huston’s Out of Place (1961), preceded by an introduction by Anna Orlando, GenovaJeans curator for the municipality of Genoa, Matteo. Campora, Municipal Councilor for the Environment, and Giovanni Battista Raggi, President of Amiu. Moderator: Renato Tortarolo, critic of Il Secolo XIX.
Dregs, the latest film by Marilyn Monroe and Clark Gable, tells the story of a middle-aged cowboy who captures wild horses for a feed mill. Faced with the beauty of a much-desired prey, he allows his fiancée, a fragile and neurotic woman, to convince himself, and returns the animal to freedom.
On Tuesday, September 19, at 6:45 pm and 9:15 pm at the Sivori cinema, we will continue watching Randal Kleiser’s Grease (1978), a cult film starring Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta, the protagonists of a 1950s love story between the most beautiful girl school and the most desired boy. A musical full of tight pants, lipsticks and jackets, parties, seduction, fights, friendships, shreds, dance competitions and unforgettable songs.
Another atmosphere in Brokeback Mountain by Ang Lee (2006), winner of the Golden Lion at the 2005 Venice Film Festival and three Oscars for Best Director, Best Screenplay and Best Soundtrack. It will be shown on Tuesday, September 26, at 18.45 and 21.15 at the Sivori cinema. The virtue of the film was that it described the story of same-sex love between two shepherds, breaking the cliché of the macho who should never ask. Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger delicately and romantically interpret the moment when two men declare their unspeakable attraction (set in 1963) with a daring that only comes out when working alone in the mountains. When they return to the valley, a painful secret is born that is too hard to share with the rest of the world, including the wives.
On Thursday, October 5, at 6:45 pm and 9:15 pm, the festival will move to the Ariston Cinema (vico San Matteo 14) with Milos Forman’s Hair (1979), a beat generation masterpiece and manifesto based on the Broadway musical of the same name in 1967. We We are in Central Park, where a young Oklahoma man on his way to Vietnam meets a group of hippies. They try to convince him not to join the Marines, but they only manage to spend the last few days together before leaving for the front. Days of unexpected love, friendship, strong to the point of self-sacrifice, closing in the name of an ideal and exciting pacifism that collides with reality. The cast included Beverly D’Angelo, John Savage, Treat Williams, Annie Golden, Nicholas Ray.
Finally, Blue Jeans Cinema will close on Friday, October 6 at Ariston (6:45 pm and 9:15 pm) with Elsa Kart’s most amazing and unknown movie, Slaxx. A gem, an ironic, provocative and surprising horror movie starring Romana Denis as Libby, a young and idealistic saleswoman who has to investigate a series of crimes taking place in the fashion store where she works, where everyone seems to be perfect, thin and beautiful, except for her, young and idealistic . His colleagues are dying. You can kill with a pair of demonic jeans that come to life and attack until the last breath.
There is a ticket at the Sivori cinema at a controlled price of 5 euros; Free entry to the Ariston Hotel subject to availability.
“Cinema in Blue Jeans” is organized by Circuito with the participation of the Municipality of Genoa on the occasion of “GenovaJeans” in collaboration with Amio Genova and media partner “Il Secolo XIX”.
