Prada had famously decamped during the Berlusconi operabuffa to list on the Hong Kong exchange, but Cucinelli once again put his money where his heart is.
The safest thing one could say about "Django Unchained" is that it finds Quentin Tarantino hurtling over the top yet again by juxtaposing the horrors of slavery with an absurdist, horse-opera buffa plot that quotes from all sorts of movies, including his own, with special emphasis on spaghetti westerns.
Parts of the movie are jaunty and funny (the director gets the opera-buffa side of Italian Fascism), though Bellocchio treats Dalser with the gravest courtesy.
