At Giunti Odeon, three great classics of American cinema from the 1970s will immerse you once again in the psychedelic and futuristic atmospheres of a decade that forever marked the imagination of cinema, music, visual culture and fashion.

The films of two immense masters of the history of cinema offered at Giunti Odeon in splendid and extremely rare restored versions. We start with the 34 comedies interpreted and shot by Charlie Chaplin for the Keystone Company between 2 February and 7 December 1914. In less than twelve months Chaplin went from being an almost unknown vaudeville actor to a film star. He learnt to conceive, direct and edit his own films: just one year of whirlwind activity and a world taking shape, a character gradually taking possession of his own suit, a filmmaker conquering his place in front of and behind the camera. The Keystone comedies record, in real time, and with a dynamism, vitality and energy that are unrepeatable, the birth and evolution of one of the 20th century's most universal characters. It continues with three overwhelming masterpieces by Buster Keaton: ‘Cops’ (1922), ‘The High Sign’ (1921), ‘Neighbours’ (1921). 

Three films released in recent years that have entered the collective imagination of our time. Winners of numerous Oscars, directed by great directors and starring famous actors, these three films are now to be regarded as true new cinema classics.

The Australian who reinvented the musical and sentimental genre, conquering Hollywood. Giunti Odeon pays tribute to the visionary, colourful and pop talent of Baz Luhrmann, one of the most original and controversial directors of contemporary cinema, with two of his most famous films.

François Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard: two great masters of film history, undisputed protagonists of an unrepeatable season as the French Nouvelle vague.

A book that analyzes the concept of the "gang" in modern society, highlighting how it shapes young people, fosters conformity, loneliness, and violence, and reflects the dynamics of the digital world. Silvio Ciappi will present his book Il branco (Giunti Psicologia.io) in conversation with artist Tommaso Daliana, known as Tommy Dali.

The Book:

Welcome to the age of the pack. But what is the pack? And why does it speak to today’s youth? The pack is also the new dimension of contemporary society—a horizontal world that demands happiness and success, conformity, and compliance, where even violence and pain are turned into spectacle. The pack desires what others already desire and counts: likes, connections, achievements. It watches, types, and urges individuals to correct themselves, to adjust their image within the emptiness of the digital realm. The pack fuels loneliness and violent behavior, forming the foundation of senseless, cynical violence that erupts without apparent cause, often hiding behind the face of the good boy next door. It is the union of enraged and disillusioned beings who feel the weight of social failure, inadequacy, boredom, and shame. Is there a way out of all this?
