'' The David Speciale to Monica Bellucci - continues Detassis - recognizes her unique beauty but above all the ability to gamble and provocation, as in the case of Irréversible, alternating recognized directors with young novices or innovators and almost always choosing the momentum ofauthor, from Wachowski to Virzì, from Sam Mendes to Maria Sole Tognazzi, from TerryGilliam to Kusturica, from Claude Lelouch to Kaouther Ben Hania.
Bellucci embodies the rare ability to be a global icon, without losing sight of the creative work and the artistic community.
