Several restorations undertaken by the Cineteca di Bologna highlight this season, a rich offering designed to turn Sunday afternoons into cinematic nirvana .
Every July, the world’s cinephiles, film scholars, historians, curators, and archivists go on pilgrimage to Bologna in northern Italy to the festival known as Il Cinema Ritrovato, organized by the Cineteca di Bologna, one of the finest cinematheques in Europe. From twenty years of riches, we select our own cinema ritrovato , bringing the best of Bologna to Toronto on an ongoing basis. We are especially grateful to the archives and studios who have made special loans for this series, and, of course, to the Bologna festival, which annually renews our faith in film culture. - James Quandt
Cinematheque Ontario would like to thank Barry Allen, Paramount Pictures (Los Angeles), and Anne Morra, The Museum of Modern Art (New York) for their generous assistance in the preparation of this series.}
