Jerry Calà’s son graduated from the cinema school: «Fiero of him, he will soon direct me too. Today’s films? They no longer tell the community, like us in the 80s “

Jerry Calà’s dream is about to come true: being directed by his son Johnny. However, Calà Jr. Moreover, in fact, graduated at the age of 22 from the Civic School of Cinema “Luchino Visconti” in Milan with a thesis on the province in cinema.
“It was an indescribable emotion – says the actor with all his paternal pride – from today I will have. In addition, to call him Dr. Meanwhile, Calà”. Nevertheless, The argument of the thesis affected the exam commission very much. Nevertheless, also thanks to the boy’s exhibition skill: “My son has an exceptional language jerry calà’s son graduated cinema property, I wonder from who he took … Moreover, every now and then I look at him and I wonder where he came from”.

Cinema in the Calà house is like the air you breathe. For example, Johnny had two options: to hate it or love him fired. Furthermore, «Fortunately he is a great fans – says Jerry – From an early age instead of cartoons. For example, he watched black and white moviesfilm of an era not his. Similarly, He landed at the Academy with an already remarkable cinematographic cultural background. Consequently, I want to congratulate the leaders of Luchino Visconti because it is a very pragmatic school. Meanwhile, which really teaches cinema, not only theory but also practical ». The dialogue between father. son on the seventh art has been constant over the years, animated by a great curiosity by Johnny. «During the jerry calà’s son graduated cinema discussion of the thesis – says the former cat of Vicolo Miracoli – the rapporteur wanted pay homage to me too. appointing myself in relation to the film Veronato a provincial city therefore, in which we cats have shot our first film “Gatti arrive” directed by the great Carlo Vanzina. A double emotion ».

In the afternoon the proclamation with the toasts with the classmates. in the evening the party in Verona with all the cousins. From now on. we think about the future that it will surely be for Johnny behind the camera and for Jerry in front: «My son will now rest for a while because the commitment to drawing up and discussing the thesis has been intense – continues Calà – we will think and We will certainly work on something together». Johnny has already done her first work. gaining an excellent success of criticism and audiences: «Last year she made the DOCUFILM “Bootay: Untold – The art of losing” where he followed the seven bootay fc soccer team, Founded by Jacopo jerry calà’s son graduated cinema Brama, engaged in the prestigious Nievo tournament in Verona, in which the story of these guys is narrated with a great passion for this sport, although they have never achieved success at the highest levels, but who continue to play with such dedication, facing sacrifices and difficulties as if they were professionals “. In the docufilm. which won the prize for best first work at the Sorrento Film and Food Festival, there are the precious participations of Sergio Pellissier, Damiano Tommasi and Alberto Malasani.

If for Johnny. after the well -deserved post diploma pause, the future is all to be written, for Jerry the script is already known: «I am about to go to the set of the new Pupi Avati film for a cameo that the director asked me and since I have been linked to him from a beautiful friendship, since we had jerry calà’s son graduated cinema turned together” spouses “, I accepted with great pleasure. But I am also preparing another film with a script that I really like. the filming will start at the beginning of 2026 ». But what moment is Italian cinema live? “I don’t know how well it is: as productions. it is certainly produced, but I don’t see these great hits at the box office. We should return to a cinema in which people recognize themselves a little. The films we made in the 1980s/90s. although they were very light and carefree, took a very clear photograph of what the company was at that moment. I understand that now the moment is not the most beautiful. but cinema is becoming too intimate and less and less collective. It goes too far on the staff and little on the sociological. It’s a shame ».
