in memoriam

It is with deep sorrow that I am writing these few lines.

Unfortunately our dear friend and actor George Rossi, starring in "Le Cineaste - a director's journey" has passed away two days ago.

George was one of the rare professionals I had the pleasure to work with. He was a brilliant actor and one of the nicest persons I've ever met in my career. During the brief shooting of the film, George has been an example of profession, acting skills and high spirit, all the time.

He was always kind and supportive, always happy and funny, joking in the right moments and serious when needed.

Dear George, I will never forget those great moments during the shooting, with your unique humor and kindness. I will remember you every time I think about "Le Cineaste" and thank you so much for leaving your amazing performance forever in the film. Your contribution was remarkable and I will always be proud to have met you and honoured to have worked with you.

Thank you George!

Ciao,

Manlio
