This year's Los Angeles Italia
Film Fest is to fete legendary director Bernardo Bertolucci on
the 30th anniversary of his multi-Oscar triumph at the Oscars
with The Last Emperor.
"It will be a sincere and dutiful homage to the legendary
maestro whom all of Hollywood still adores today," said fest
founder Pascal Vicedomini.
The pre-Oscar festival runs this year from February 25 to
March 3.
"Bertolucci is the only Italian director to have won the best
director category and it is fitting we celebrate him in a year
that Luca Guadagnino is generating such talk of success with his
Call Me By Your Name," said Vicedomini.
