Vittorio Gassman in memory of Alessandro: “This terror made me understand”

Alessandro Gassman opened up to tell a very private story that also concerns his father Vittorio: this is what happened in 1984.

Alessandro Gassman is at a very rich moment in his career. Until November 13, it will be possible to see his show, We flew over a cuckoo’s nest, at the Sala Umberto theater in Rome. The adaptation was directed by Maurizio De Giovanni, known to the general public for being the author of the books that inspired Mina Settembre.

The writings of Maurizio De Giovanni also inspired I Bastardi di Pizzofalcone, in which Alessandro Gassman is the protagonist. At the end of October, the actor announced the start of filming for the highly anticipated fourth season of the fiction, which should therefore be broadcast perhaps from the first months of 2023. It will start again from the fate of Inspector Lojacono.

The bastards of Pizzofalcone 3 ended with an event that certainly left fans spellbound. Inspector Lojacono had left to go to the wedding of Alex Di Nardo and Rosaria Martone, but he never reached his destination. What happened to him? Fans of Alessandro Gassman won’t have to wait long to see him back on television, however.

Also at the end of October, Netflix released My name is revenge, which sees Alessandro Gassman as its protagonist. The career as an artist that the son of Vittorio Gassman manages to build is incredible, but the actor himself wanted to remind Il Messaggero of the very important background of life with his father for him.

The memory of Alessandro Gassman: what happened with Vittorio in 1984

Alessandro Gassman explained that he made his theater debut for the first time in 1984 by Vittorio’s will. From his words, he seems to understand that at that time he was not thinking about being an actor at all, but something made him change his mind. On stage, he finds himself playing alongside his father, in the natural role of son. She dyed her hair for the occasion.

Alessandro Gassman remembers that just that yellow hair made him extremely embarrassed. He was terrified of walking around, maybe because of people’s judgments. However, he remembers this fear mixed with adrenaline, which frightened him a lot but also made him understand that in his life he would have liked to do his job as an actor.
