Italian director and screenwriter Saverio Costanzo has just wrapped his upcoming film Finalemente L’Alba, starring newcomer Rebecca Antonaci alongside international cast Lily James, Joe Keery,…
Deadline visited the Cinecittà set on the tri-ultimate day of filming, sitting down with Costanzo to discuss the genesis of the project and its production.This film marks quite a break for you after the long period spent working on ‘My Brilliant Friend’?This is my first work based on my own original material. My films have always come from a book or private stories that I adapt. This is my dawn, a new beginning. The inspiration is very personal, based on something that happened to me.
I rehearsed her on the key stuff and then let her go. She’s one of the best actresses I’ve worked with and then she was surrounded by Willem, Lily and Joe, who are all really professional.How did you convince the international cast members to take on smaller supporting roles alongside an unknown newcomer?You would have to ask them.
Doing this film, I also understood what was special and good about this era. There was no psychology. People were acting in a very crazy, irrational way. There was so much freedom. It’s after the war and just before the economic boom. People didn’t know where they would end up. Life was an adventure. I hope this work gives back this same kind of energy. Italy is currently enjoying a fresh film and TV production boom and Cinecittà is buzzing.
