Cinema Massimo – 24 March 2010, at 8.45 p.m.

The National Museum of Cinema presents its fifth evening in the MAGNIFICHE VISIONI (MAGNIFICENT VISIONS) permanent festival of restored film.

The evening will feature Don Siegel’s masterpiece Dirty Harry, the first in the series of films that portray the adventures of San Francisco police inspector Harry Callahan, played by Clint Eastwood. The film, which will be screened in its 2K version restored by Warner Bros, is considered a benchmark for the police detective film genre and is loosely based on the story of a serial killer called Zodiac who terrorised the San Francisco Bay area from the late 1960s to the late 1970s.

The screening will be introduced by the author Marcello Fois.
