La palma è sempre stata un simbolo positivo.
Alle origini del cristianesimo, per esempio, rappresentava la ricompensa celeste dei martiri (san Sebastiano ebbe doppia palma e doppia corona perché fu doppio il suo martirio).
La Palma d’oro di Cannes, riconoscimento forse più profano ma di prestigio professionale indiscutibile, è andata a un francese, ma il doppio trionfo che il nostro cinema ha ottenuto in terra di Francia è motivo d’orgoglio più che giustificato.
Gomorra l’ho visto, Il Divo lo vedrò a breve.
Era dal 1972, anno in cui “Il caso Mattei” e “La classe operaia va in paradiso” vinsero entrambi il premio della giuria, che il nostro Paese non otteneva così glorioso riscontro.
