San Vito Lo Capo on the Big Screen
Back in the 1950s, the movies found ideal locations in San Vito Lo Capo for several productions, such as “Vento del Sud” directed by Enzo Provenzale, where a very young Claudia Cardinale took her first steps in the world of cinema. Giuseppe Tornatore, one of the most acclaimed Italian directors, shot the opening scenes of “Everybody’s Fine” on the little beach in Macari, where six years earlier Sandro Bolchi had directed a stunning Lea Massari in “La Vigna di Uve Nere”. Internationally renowned directors helped make San Vito Lo Capo known and loved around the world for the settings in their works, like Michael Cimino with “The Sicilian.” Television also found great inspiration for various TV movies, “transforming” the Tonnara of San Vito Lo Capo first into a military barracks in “Cefalonia,” then into a smugglers’ hideout in “Il Giro di Boa,” an episode from the hit series “Inspector Montalbano.”
