"David Di Donatello awards: 'Vermiglio' crowned as the top film"
70th David di Donatello Awards Celebrate Rich Year in Italian Cinema
The 70th edition of the David di Donatello awards, often referred to as the Italian Oscars, took place recently, celebrating a year rich in significant Italian cinema titles. The ceremony, hosted by Elena Sofia Ricci and Mika, opened with a tribute from Lebanese singer Mika to Italian cinema.
Throughout the night, several films and their creators were recognised for their contributions to Italian cinema. "Vermiglio," directed by Maura Delpero, was a standout, winning the Best Film award and the Grand Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival 2024. This marks the first time in the history of the Davids that a woman has won the award for best director.
"Vermiglio" was not the only film to receive multiple nominations. "Berlinguer - La grande ambizione" received 15 nominations, while "Vermiglio," "L'arte della gioia," and "Parthenope" each received 14 nominations.
The ceremony was filled with memorable performances, with Mika's impeccable rendition standing out. His performance was able to enchant with his notes and more, adding a special touch to the evening.
However, some parts of the ceremony were prolonged with predictable thank-yous from winners, but the overall atmosphere was one of celebration and camaraderie.
In a significant move, "Vermiglio" was chosen to represent Italy at the latest Oscar awards. With its success at the David di Donatello awards, it is poised to make a strong impact on the international stage.
As the Italian film industry continues to thrive, the 70th David di Donatello awards served as a testament to the talent and creativity within the nation's cinema. The evening was a celebration of Italian cinema and a promising sign of things to come.
