âItalian producer sets up local production,â written by Gabriella Cosolovich, discusses Domenico Procacci and his production company, Fandango Australia. Cosolovich describes how Procacciâs relationship with Australian film industry developed. The article conveys the respect Procacci has for Australian films by stating âProcacci is a fan of Australian film and will back productions even if they may have limited audience appeal,â and by quoting Procacci directly: âThe Australian cinema I like does not respect the rules and it's a cinema which has freedom - freedom to take risks.â The author describes how Procacci came to Australia to negotiate distribution of an Italian film he had produced and how that led to him backing the Australian films âBad Boy Bubbyâ and âHe Died with a Felafel in His Hand.â The general tone of the article is one of balanced recommendation. Cosolovich does not explicitly state any opinions, but the balance of the information she presents leans audiences towards a respectful and grateful attitude towards Procacci. The author points out that the directors of Fandango Australia are Procacci and four Australians, furthering the sense that Procacci is very supportive of, and giving toward, the Australian industry. Overall the article is an informative piece about Proccaciâs ventures that ultimately becomes an advertisement for his latest film; however it spends much more time selling Procacci as a human being than it does selling him as a business man.
