La Cardinale is in town! CC visits Amsterdam as a special guest of the Italian film week 'Fare Cinema'. Tonight, she will be interviewed before the screening of Luchino Visconti's Il gattopardo (1963) in EYE Filmmuseum. Yesterday, Ivo Blom met her at a cocktail party at the Waldorf Astoria in Amsterdam and presented her his book 'Reframing Luchino Visconti'. For this post at EFSP, I use a series of Czech collectors cards, which I recently acquired. The cards were published in 1965 after Cardinale's visit to the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in 1964.
