Matteo Garrone's Pinnochio (2019)

[Roast Chicken]

It's in Italian but it looks amazing. Eat it, Disney.

Wait a minute, wasn't there already a Pinocchio movie with Roberto Benigni?

The more the merrier
but ngl this actually looks fine and I look forward to it

They say that a story is most faithful in its native tongue. Will Matteo Garrone's Pinnochio be faithful to the original source? Who knows, though I do admit that I want to see how this turns out.

How long until Disney announces their live action adaptation?

Yes, and he played the title role. It was... a bit off.

As to this movie: looks like it's meant for kids, but in a good way. What's the over/under on the Mouse trying to kill any kind of professional dub of this?

I'm very confused about this myself. Is this a remake of the older Italian Pinocchio film from about 20 years ago except Roberto Benigni is Geppetto this time?

Wait, this actually going to be faithful to Collodi's book? I might have to check it out. That book was dark for a kid's story.

All the Italian adaptations of Pinocchio have been more or less faithful to the book, showcasing the main character's flaws (even though Benigni's one was a bit cringy). I admit that I'm very curious to see this movie. I suppose that if Disney made a live-action remake, they probably would have the innocent, naive Pinocchio clad in typical Austrian clothing...
