Remembering Roberto Rossellini
By Isabella Rossellini
‘Few children grow up to honour the centenary of their father’s birth by making a film and publishing a book with its script at its centre, alongside letters between her parents, commentary from the likes of Truffaut and Fellini, numerous drawings and some implausibly glamorous photographs.’
Alex Clark, The Observer
Roberto Rossellini would have been 100 years old in Spring 2006. The great Italian director who made film history with Rome, Open City also came to fame as the man cought between the two most beautiful women of his day, Anna Magnani and Ingrid Bergman. His daughter Isabella now gives him this birthday present: a unique book of images and memories of her beloved father.
Includes a bonus DVD of My Dad Is 100 Years Old. A film directed by Guy Maddin, written and starring Isabella Rossellini and produced by Jody Shapiro.
Isabella Rossellini, daughter of Ingrid Bergman and Roberto Rossellini, born in 1952, grew up in Rome and Paris. When she was 19, she went to New York, where she began a career as an actress in the movies, especially under the direction of David Lynch, and became world-famous as the exclusive model for the cosmetics giant Lancome. Her books Some of Me and Looking at Me were international bestsellers.
