Amici di Italy Magazine,
A little disappointed for the lack of Italian movies representing the country at the Academy Awards this year, we decided to turn our attention to the Italian dubbing industry.
We started by looking at the history and tradition of this special form of art perfected in Italy and then focused on the top ten Italian voices behind Hollywood's stars. We included videos of famous movies dubbed in Italian to give you the chance to hear hollywood stars speak la bella lingua.
After the shocking announcement that Pope Benedict XVI will retire on 28 February, the odds on the favourites to succeed him are jumping around each day but one thing is already stitched up - the suit the new pontiff will wear. It could hardly be a more fitting time to discuss the latest holy attire that is waiting in the wings to be altered by the Sarto Vaticano. The Pope's tailor, Giovanni La Scala.
As the general election in Italy approaches many will have read references to the 'par condicio' rule and wondered what it is and what it covers. Carol King explained how the Italian media works and what are the rules for those reporting on the general election.
Finally, do not miss our language lesson about Italian food idioms and how to use them in everyday language.
This year we created a 2013 Italy Magazine desktop wallpaper calendar. We hope you liked the idea and downloaded the first months. It is now possible to download the March page dedicated to Easter Traditions in Sicily.
A presto!
ITALY team
