Italy has arisen: The Leopard

exact
One hundred and fifty years ago, Victor Emmanuel II was crowned King of Italy, an Italy novel, just born, risen from the ashes of what was an endless cluster of states and small states, an old body is falling apart, of when you had to change everything, to ensure that uniform, returned to live and prosper.
To celebrate this day I want to tell you about a great masterpiece of literature and cinema: The Leopard .
Written by Tomasi di Lampedusa and brought to the screen by the great Luchino Visconti, Il Gattopardo talking about this, when a hundred and fifty years ago, the new swept the old one, forever. A generation, that of ocelots, the proud aristocrats of yore, now finally went down to make way for new generation, that of the bourgeois, the 'new rich, able to move on and benefit from modern Italian soil.

We were the Leopards, lions ...
Those that will replace the sciacalletti, hyenas, and all of Leopards, jackals and sheep continue to believe the salt of the earth.

The Leopard is a superb novel, bitter, nostalgic. Able to entrarti inside and burn like the hot climate of Sicily so finely described this through its pages, capable of bewitching with its characters, and alter certain noble, low and mean another, but all and all, ably described, in victory and in defeat, by the skill of Tomasi di Lampedusa, the last heir of a narrator and world now lost forever, that of the Leopards.
protagonist, Prince Fabrizio Salina proud last member of an unhappy generation straddling the old and new times, and his nephew Tancred, who can smell the change and follow him, married Angelica, daughter of Don Calogero mayor Sedar, petty bourgeois enriched by the new Italy, although crude man and totally inappropriate ways.

assisting the landing of a Thousand, Prince Fabrizio also assists with the end of the Bourbon kingdom, at the end of his era. The nobility gave way to a new forever rising social class, composed of people greedy, petty and unscrupulous, with the rest later, even the beloved nephew Tancredi, devious and shrewd social climber. 'S the end of the ideals that had, hitherto, led an era.

The clash between the two worlds is evident in the background of a violent Sicilian landscapes, the climate hot, land where it snows fire, whose inhabitants are sleeping, sleep, sleep is what Sicilians want, and they hate people who always wants them to wake up, even to bring them the most beautiful gifts , sleep and death, so ; the irresistible fascination for a past that attracts precisely because he is deceased.
But if the novel is superb, the film, the 1963 is a masterpiece.
Visconti, perfectionist like few others, directs a work that is at one with what the pen Tomasi di Lampedusa created on paper settings, characters, costumes, dialogues. There is not a comma out of place and refinement of detail borders on obsession almost in a work, however, does not her only asset of aesthetics.
Perfetti also actors: the austere Frabrizio Don is played by an exceptional Burt Lancaster, Tancred, the grandson intriguing one, he has the face dell'affascinante Alain Delon, while on the scene to bring the beautiful Angelica is Claudia Cardinale, in superlative all the senses.
