Time for Loving (1983) by Carlo Vanzina finally returns to cinemas from August 29th in a restored 4K version!
It was 1983, but Time for Loving, directed by Carlo Vanzina and co-written with his brother Enrico, took audiences back twenty years to the summer of 1964 on the beach of Forte dei Marmi, narrating the carefree vacations of a group of youths and their families. Produced by Dean Film, the movie featured a stellar cast including Jerry Calà, Christian De Sica, Isabella Ferrari, Marina Suma, and the late Virna Lisi—who won the David di Donatello and Silver Ribbon for Best Supporting Actress—at the peak of their careers, and it became a symbol of the carefreeness and emotions of a bygone era.
This cult classic of Italian comedy, which grossed 10 billion at the box office, returns to cinemas from August 29: FilmClub Distribuzione, in collaboration with Minerva Pictures and Leone Film Group, brings it back to the big screen in a restored 4K version.
The film, which marked an era and an entire generation, is re-presented in a new and radiant guise thanks to a meticulous restoration process that has enhanced its visual and sound quality. The 4K restoration, carried out by the Cineteca di Bologna in collaboration with Dean Film, has revived the vivid colors and summer vibes of the film, making every detail even more engaging for modern audiences. For those who already know it or are yet to discover it, this is an opportunity to relive the adventures of Luca, Felicino, Selvaggia, and other characters like never before, in a quality that does justice to the original vision of the director. On the occasion of the release of the restored film, a series of events and meetings with original cast and crew members are also planned, who will share anecdotes and memories related to the making of the film.
