Rese�a del editor:

This book is both reference manual and critical essay, an analytical "work in progress" that illustrates the enormous presence of Italian cinema in Hollywood, tracing the stories of the Italian nominations and victories at the Academy Awards from 1947, when the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences awarded Vittorio De Sica's Shoeshine an honorary Oscar.
This book not only offers readers a vast panorama of the films (with cast and credit lists as well as notes on the productions) but also recounts, with concise individual descriptions, the stories of the directors, actors, producers, writers and dozens of talented artists and technicians (costume designers, cinematographers, composers, editors and art directors) whose work and inspiration have contributed to the great success of Italian cinema throughout the world. Prefaced with an introduction by Bernardo Bertolucci and an extensive essay by the author - which reconstructs the history of Italian cinema in Hollywood through the voices of its greatest protagonists as well as observant "admirers" from among American talents like Martin Scorsese and George Lucas - the book contains detailed indexes and chronologies, as well as a vast collection of photographs, including portraits of the artists, scenes from the films, and rare backstage moments.
