:37:04
And there was something else.
:37:09
When the movie was released
in Italy,
:37:12
it was as successful as
in the States.
:37:15
Oliver Stone came to Italy.
:37:19
At the restaurant with a friend of mine,
he said: 'Did you see'
:37:24
'the impact of this movie
on the young Americans?'
:37:28
'The impact that Cannibal Holocaust
had on those young Americans'
:37:33
'who made up The Blair Witch Project?'
:37:36
'What about Deodato'?.
:37:38
'What do you think?'
:37:40
'Does he wish he had earned
as much money as they did?'
:37:44
That's the story.
:37:50
With him, I also did
Inferno in diretta.
:37:53
And I found once again
his capacity to entertain.
:37:58
Unfortunately, he lives in Italy.
:38:01
It's not a country that accepts
to pay much.
:38:05
We killed the industry
:38:07
by ignoring this type of directors
:38:11
and by praising others...
:38:15
Ruggero could shoot
a 40-million movie
:38:19
or even 50-million,
because he can manage finances.
:38:22
Most directors don't know
how to manage 2.
:38:30
I didn't know him before.
We became friends
:38:34
because the circumstances
of the movie helped us so.
:38:39
We were a small team,
:38:42
we were very few people,
we lived in the same...
:38:46
'hotels', even if we rather had
:38:50
bungalows.
:38:52
We were permanently in contact,
evening and morning,
:38:56
during meals, at night...
:38:59
Our initial contact
