The 2019 film is based on Collodi's novel \"The Adventures of Pinocchio\" and has been a hit with audiences and critics alike. In fact, the film work received an impressive 15 nominations for the 2020 David di Donatello Awards, taking home 5 awards. It also grossed 2 Oscar nominations in the Best Makeup and Best Costume Design categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This film can boast a <strong>exceptional cast<\/strong>, in which we find Roberto Benigni as Geppetto, Gigi Proietti as Mangiafuoco and Massimo Ceccherini and Rocco Papaleo who instead play the Cat and the Fox. What is striking, however, is not only the skill of the performers, but also the beauty of the locations chosen for the film's shooting, which took place over 11 weeks in parts of Puglia, including Ostuni, Polignano a Mare, Fasano and other inland places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"I_luoghi_che_hanno_ospitato_il_film\"><\/span><strong>The places that hosted the film<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"La_casa_della_Fata_Turchina\"><\/span><strong>The home of the Blue Fairy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The scenes set in the Blue Fairy's house were filmed in <strong>Altamura<\/strong>, in the province of Bari. More precisely, some spaces and buildings of Masseria Patrone and Masseria Jesce, which are located a short distance from Appia Antica, were used. This is a place of great charm and rich in history, ideal for recreating an ancient dwelling with colorful floors, sumptuous curtains and four-poster beds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lincontro_tra_Pinocchio_e_il_Gatto_e_la_Volpe\"><\/span><strong>The encounter between Pinocchio and the Cat and the Fox.<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Garrone's is a journey through the wonders of Italy, and for this reason some natural sights were chosen that are perfect for representing fairy-tale and magical lands. For example, Pinocchio's encounter with the Cat and Fox in Toyland takes place in the town of <strong>Ostuni<\/strong>, whose historic center is renowned for its characteristic white lime houses. Other filming then also took place in Fasano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Il_pescecane_in_mare\"><\/span><strong>The shark at sea<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What the director shows is an Apulia made up of legendary creatures and fantastic characters. In fact, in the Apulian sea itself lives the terrible shark. To be precise, the scenes related to the animal were recorded in the beautiful crystal-clear waters of <strong>Polignano a Mare<\/strong>, hometown of Domenico Modugno and also famous for diving competitions from great heights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Il_teatro_di_Mangiafuoco\"><\/span><strong>The Eater's Theater<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Italy is a natural film set that needs no introduction. It is no coincidence that Garrone decided to set part of the filming with Mangiafuoco in the world's smallest theater that can be encountered in the municipality of <strong>Noic\u00e0ttaro<\/strong>, near Bari. The building is the Nojano Citizen Theater, which is currently a property under FAI protection. The structure dates back to the 19th century and has just 50 seats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Limpiccagione_di_Pinocchio\"><\/span><strong>The Hanging of Pinocchio<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Alta Murgia National Park was one of the main locations of the film in Apulia. In addition to the aforementioned Altamura, some scenes were also shot in <strong>Spinazzola <\/strong>and <strong>Gravina di Puglia<\/strong> for their verdant expanses and countryside of rare beauty. It was in these very fields that the macabre scene of Pinocchio's hanging took place. Also used was the Madonna della Stella viaduct in Gravina di Puglia, an arched bridge erected in the late 17th century.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pinocchio is one of the latest films made by director Matteo Garrone.
