2- About the director Luciano Salce
 
Luciano Salce (Roma, 25 settembre 1923 – Roma, 17 dicembre 1989) è stato un regista e attore italiano.

Dopo aver lasciato la facoltà di giurisprudenza poco prima della laurea, si iscrisse all'accademia di arte drammatica dove si diplomò. Cominciò la sua attività artistica nel campo del teatro, in Italia e in Francia, recitando assieme a Vittorio Caprioli e Franca Valeri nel Teatro dei Gobbi, rilevando il posto di Alberto Bonucci....(See here)

Born: September 25, 1922 in Rome, Italy Occupation: Actor, Director, Screenwriter Biography:Italian director Luciano Salce did his first post-college work helming stage plays, then moved to Brazil in 1950 to function as artistic director of Teatro Brasiliero de Comedia. Salce acted in a handful Brazilian films before returning to Italy to work in radio and television. His first film directorial credit was Le Pillole di Ecole (1960), after which he filled the triple-threat capacity as actor/writer/director for The Fascist (1961). Some of Scale's best film work in the '60s could be found in multi-storied pictures wherein each episode was handled by a different director, e.g. Kiss the Other Sheik (1965) and The Queens (1966). The director was particularly fond of light, location-shot comedies about the clash of old and new values, notably the Ugo Tognazzi vehicle Crazy Desire (1961) (please avoid the crudely English-dubbed version of this one). Virtually unknown in America, Luciano Salce is frequently represented on US television by one of his most conventional pictures, a harmless 1963 confection starring Sylvia Koscina and Catherine Spaak titled The Little Nuns.(See here)

He accepted the mandate because of his wish to be upgraded to "Federale". They travel by a sidecar trough the disastrous Italy, near to the final collapse, under bombings and in agony.

002 A young fascist captures and escorts an anti-fascist professor to Rome. Along the way they have various encounters with partisans and Germans but by the time they arrive in Rome, the Americans have arrived and liberated the city. The professor eventually saves his companion from being lynched by the partesans.(See here)

He accepted the mandate because of his wish to be upgraded to "Federale". They travel by a sidecar through disastrous Italy, nearing its final collapse, under bombings and in agony. Nevertheless, they manage to build up a kind of friendship.(See here)
004 The Fascist (Il Federale) is a comedy set in 1944 Italy. Dedicated fascist Ugo Tognazzi is sent to capture anti-Mussolini professor Georges Wilson. He accomplishes his mission, but both captor and captive have a hard time getting home. After numerous comic misadventures in Tognazzi's motorcycle, the two men are caught in an air raid, the result being that both lose their clothing. Arriving in Rome, Tognazzi discovers that the city has fallen to the Allies--and now it is he, the fascist, who is in danger of capture and incarceration. Professor Wilson, who has grown fond of the essentially decent Tognazzi, rescues his ex-captor from an angry mob. Filmed in 1961, The Fascist was finally released in the US four years later.

5- Infomation
 
02 About the Brigate Nere (Black Brigades)

Black Brigades (Italian: Brigate Nere) were one of the fascist paramilitary groups operating in the Italian Social Republic (in northern Italy), during the final years of World War II, and after the signing of the Italian Armistice in 1943.

Italian dictator Benito Mussolini was arrested after the Italian Grand Council of Fascism (Gran Consiglio del Fascismo), with the support of King Vittorio Emanuele III, overthrew him and began negotiations with the Allies for Italy's withdrawal from the war. Mussolini was rescued by German paratroopers led by Otto Skorzeny. He was then installed by the Germans as the President of the Italian Social Republic (RSI). The RSI was to be an Italian regime which was to nominally administer the German-occupied northern Italy.(See 01, 02, )

What a treat! This is the first soundtrack that Ennio Morricone ever composed! It's from the 1961 movie Il Federale (The Fascist) and is presented here on CD for the very first time.
The Il Federale soundtrack alternates between humourous music to dramatic passages and this release which has been fully authorised by Morricone himself.


The Il Federale soundtrack contains many elements that are typical of Morricone's later styles he developed throughout his four and a half decades of soundtrack composing. (See here)

"Digitmovies proudly wants to celebrate the 45 years of legendary Film Music by composer Ennio Morricone releasing on CD the complete score composed and orchestrated by Maestro Ennio Morricone in year 1961 for Luciano Salce's "Il federale" ("The Fascist") starring Ugo Tognazzi. This CD release is again possible thanks to the big help of C.A.M. friends who did keep for until today the session mono master tapes and Maestro Ennio Morricone himself who authorized every selected track. This score is historically very important cause it represents Maestro Morricone's absolute first Film Scoring assignment and also the first record of his so big discography. In fact in year 1961 RCA released a (Hyper Top rare today!) EP single (RCA PME-30-447) containing some selections from the score (mostly editings of various takes that were really cut versions, while here we have restored these takes, presenting them for the first time in their uncut form. The tracks of the original single are here all enclosed: Tracks 1, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 16, 17, 22 (while the track 6 called "Colloquio delle fragole" was a mistaken title featuring on the EP single different music that did not correspond at all to the right film scene, so apart the track title, the right music appears here on record for the first time. Ennio Morricone has written an orchestral score (conducted by Pierluigi Urbini) dominated by a lovely March called "Marcia del viaggio" , a funny military theme like a real Scherzo for Orchestra, introduced in "Titoli" (tr.1) and then reprised with variations in the score (tr.7, 9, 12). The other main theme is called "Tema di Bonafè" for the character of Professor Bonafè (Georges Wilson) (tr. 4 & tr.18) a mystic motif with a semi-religious flavour. The score alternates humoresque music passages (tr.4, 5, 11, 14, 15) to other dramatic ones (tr.5, tr.21). This score written by a young Morricone is a music jewel containing many elements so typical of his later style that he has delevoped and matured during the following four decades and half. Thank you M° Morricone for 45 years of legendary Film Music! Limited edition compact disc - 12 full colour pages de-luxe booklet." (See here)

An additional text on August 1, 2007
There are many coincidence in the world. Today I also met a coincidence, My long friend Mr. Chilian (See here) sent an E-mail to me today, he tell me that he and his family are traveling in Italy. Of course, this is not what coincidence, only it is coincidence that his traveling place just is the departing place of the dramatis personae of the movie in that special tour--Abruzzo. Below is an extract of the E-mail"
 

....during the first week of June we visited the village of TORTORETO LIDO, which on the eastern side of the Italian peninsula on the coast of the Adriatic sea (approx. on the same level as ROME). The Abruzze mountains are west of the village and the highest mountain is 2950 meters high !!!! Italy is full of history with beautiful landscapes, old villages, great food and friendly people...

After enter "TORTORETO LIDO" in Google, I have found its address. map.and official web site soon, its position is below:
TORTORETO in the hand position of right side, it situated east-north corner of Abruzzo region. Roma is situated its left side
LIDO is a town of the TORTORETO (in the hand position) It is situated middle of A14 expressway and Adriatic sea and a narrow-long land
A bird's eye of LIDO, the street, houses, coastal virescence belt, white sand beach, amusement establishment with art design was arranged in good order. bobble Adriatic sea is so nice.

To compare the movie, I have so much sigh with emotion, The earth still is that earth, the Abruzze still is that Abruzze, after more 60 years, when the peace and development befallen in the world, the world is so lovely! If only there will be more wise statesmans and leaders in the world, guiding the world trends lasting peace, let more people live a happy life!
