THE WORKS OF TINTO BRASS


Sigla Va’ pensiero

(1989)

On YouTube. A TV series, it looks like. Watch closely and you’ll see the briefest moment of Tinto singing, along with the briefest moments of lots of other famous people singing too. If you know more about this, please drop me a line. Thanks!

Calze Levante

(1990)

Carmen Loderus starred in this Brass-directed TV commercial, shot in Porto Venere. RAI Television refused to broadcast it, and yet whoever wrote Porto Venere remarked that this is one of the five most beautiful TV commercials in his/her/their memory.

You can judge for yourselves, because it’s now on YouTube. But hurry and download it before it disappears.
