Al docufilm un Nastro d’argento speciale assegnato dal Sindacato nazionale giornalisti cinematografici.
Roma, 1° febbraio- I giornalisti cinematografici lo annunciano oggi, in una giornata speciale per il film che nel ricordo di Ettore Scola esce per soli due giorni in molte sale italiane, anticipando l’annuncio ufficiale della selezione ufficiale dei finalisti ai Nastri d’Argento Documentari 2016, in arrivo domani
“Ridendo e scherzando” Ritratto di un regista all’italiana, il documentario scritto e diretto da Paola e Silvia Scola sul padre Ettore, presentato alla Festa del Cinema di Roma nello scorso ottobre, arriverà ora nelle sale il 1° e il 2 febbraio con un’uscita evento, distribuito da 01 Distribution. Un racconto a distanza ravvicinata, un lungo “Amarcord” che passa in rassegna tutto il cinema di Ettore Scola e dunque il miglior cinema italiano, realizzato utilizzando molto materiale d’archivio, filmini familiari e inediti backstage dai set dei suoi film.

Today is a sad day for our company. As much a great director as he was a great person, Ettore Scola has died
I had the privilege to know him well and enjoy his friendship and his respect. Just three months ago we presented “Laughing and joking, portrait of an Italian film director”, the documentary film about his life. He wanted his daughters to do this documentary because he said “after I am dead who knows what they will do about me?”. He also had a lot of fun.
Some of the most beautiful films on our catalogue, and some of the best of Italian cinema, were directed by Ettore; titles such as “A Special Day” and “Ugly Dirty and Bad” come to mind.
A few months ago I had the privilege to receive from Ettore and his daughters the duty to sell some of their films such as “Family” and “Dinner.”
I will miss him very much,
Massimo Vigliar, President of Surf Film
