MARTIN EDEN<\/h2>\nMARTIN EDEN<\/h2>\n| 2019 – 129′ – Drama – Adapted from a 1909 novel by Jack London yet set in a provocatively unspecified moment in Italy\u2019s history,\u00a0Martin Eden\u00a0is a passionate and enthralling narrative fresco in the tradition of the great Italian classics. Martin (played by the marvelously committed Luca Marinelli) is a self-taught proletarian with artistic aspirations who hopes that his dreams of becoming a writer will help him rise above his station and marry a wealthy young university student (Jessica Cressy). The dissatisfactions of working-class toil and bourgeois success lead to political awakening and destructive anxiety in this enveloping, superbly mounted bildungsroman. Winner of the Best Actor prize at the Venice Film Festival and the Platform Prize at the Toronto International Film Festival.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n MARTIN EDEN | 2019 – 129′ – Drama – A Franco-Italian co-production.
