Italy is celebrated around the world for its cuisine: simple, rustic, and tasteful. Likewise, Italy’s cinema has continuously garnered great acclaim. Yet, the history behind their food and the ways it has been treated in media is decidedly more complicated.
reveals both the progression and devolution of Italy’s filmic foodscape from 1954 to 1973.
Following the diegesis of Italy’s transition from hunger to abundance across these decades, as visceral needs morphed into other forms of desire, this book portrays how the anxieties surrounding food began as a light-hearted, comedic nostalgia, but later transitioned into fatalistic panic.
