Gomorrah / Gomorra Series: 46th New York Film Festival [Sept. 26 – Oct. 12, 2008] Director: Matteo Garrone, Country: Italy, Release: 2008, Runtime: 137 “A ferociously unsentimental and fictionalized look at the Neapolitan Mafia.” – Manohla Dargis, The New York Times “A dynamite reinvention of the Italian Mafioso movie...Garrone finds marvelous, dark, symbolic and poetic images" -Andrew O'Hehir, Salon From Roberto Saviano’s bestselling 2006 book about the international influence of the Italian organized crime empire known as the Camorra, Matteo Garrone (The Embalmer, ND/NF 2003) has made an electrifying mob movie set in Naples that will impress and unnerve even the most demanding aficionados of the genre. In this deft interweaving of five stories, the Camorra’s reach extends from the heights of haute couture to the depths of toxic waste, and Garrone coolly observes all the attendant brutality. (You’ll never ogle movie-star high fashion in the same way again.) The great Neapolitan director and actor Toni Servillo heads a strong cast as a lethally smooth businessman in a sharp suit who specializes in the illegal dumping of corporate poisons. Tony Soprano and his crew would run in terror. An IFC Films release.
