In March, several months before SAG-AFTRA actors went on the warpath in Hollywood, Italy’s dubbing industry workers staged a protracted strike demanding higher wages, less frenzied work conditions and protection against artificial intelligence.
The Italian dubbing industry workers – many of whom are voice actors – returned to work after three weeks as local unions entered a phase of negotiations that seemed promising enough, even though their issues are not yet resolved.
Cut to the present day. Italian unions representing the country’s film and TV industry workers are at “a very critical, almost historic juncture” in a broader labor dispute with the country’s motion picture association Anica and other industry trade orgs, according to Sabina Di Marco, leader of Slc Cgil, the biggest union at the bargaining table.
Slc Cgil, which represents roughly 1,700 Italian actors, and Unita, an Italian actors’ union with 1,600 members, are in what Di Marco hopes...

Photo: 'Under The Amalfi Sun' When sitting at home on any given evening with nothing to do, nowhere to be, and no other shows to binge, one might scour the handful of streaming services to find a film that seems as if it’ll provide a pleasant experience to the viewer. They might find it on HBO Max, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Disney Plus, or any other platform, but eventually, they’ll find it. That film may not necessarily be perfect, it may even have a handful of problems with its characters and writing, but it checks enough boxes to give the viewer a decent and relaxing ninety-plus minutes. Its vibe, tone, and aesthetic are the main appeals of the film as opposed to the structural components such as story and character. ‘Under the Amalfi Sun’ is one of those films.

We're all excited about Cyberpunk 2077, but one story indicates that nobody may be more excited for the game than Keanu Reeves.
