Rimini, a city with famous births

There are a lot of celebrities from the world of entertainment somehow related to the city of Rimini. Rimini has given birth to many famous people, or for many was a special place.

The first, the most important, the most connected of all was undoubtedly Federico Fellini. The great master of the Italian cinema was born in Rimini on 20 January 1920. Here he spent his youth and the years of high school, which years later he would have returned several times in his films. But since he moved to Rome when he was twenty years old, he came back few times and reluctantly to Rimini, where his family, his mother and sister still lived. But Rimini for him was above all a place of memory, of remembrance. Here is how the Master described this fact: “Above all, I think, the back [is] a pleased masochistic rechewing of memory: a theatrical, literary operation. Sure, it can have its charm. A sleepy, turbid charm. But here: I can not consider Rimini as an objective fact.”

However some of its most popular characters are directly derived from his own memories of high school, like Amarcord, a film that marks exactly his return, with the memory, to the days of his youth. These were memoirs on which Fellini thought about several times, thinking about when he was a child and went in carriage with his parents, or the houses where he lived with his family. A familiar Rimini made up of emotions, which he was not able to objectify. His favorite places, which are still popular tourist destinations, were the pier of Rimini, the Lighthouse on the port channel, the Malatesta Temple and the Cinema Fulgor.

The city of Rimini still remembers the Grand Master who was born here and who was buried beside his wife, Giulietta Masina, with many events and initiatives in his honor. In Rimini is located the Federico Fellini Foundation and Museum of Fellini, which holds texts, videos and documents of various kinds on Fellini. The Foundation organizes various activities, such as the exhibition “The books of my house” where you can visit the more than 2,000 volumes of his personal library. The Exhibition can be visited by tourists and fans until August 16. Also film retrospectives on the major masters of cinema are often organized here.

But also many others have given luster and prestige to this city, here for example Hugo Pratt was born, one of the most famous cartoonists in the world, creator of Corto Maltese, one of the most famous comics internationally. Here also Renato Zavagli, called René Gruau was born, one of the most important graphic designers in the world, who created some of the most famous posters for the cabarets in Paris. Always here in Rimini Delio Rossi was born, a former Italian soccer player and coach. And in more recent times, Samuele Bersani, original Italian singer and songwriter. To give honor to Rimini, there was also Carlton Myers, one of the greatest basketball players in Italy, who played for the Rimini Basket team from 1988 to 1992 and in the 1994-1995 season. Here he developed professionally and put himself in the spotlight for the first time.

is my room to young for a 27 year old?

I have some old college/high school trophies on my chest, a bookshelf with all my pre med books/entrance exam books, a nice black computer desk, a mini skeleton model (from college pre med days), a Hawaiian tropic model on a poster, an entourage framed poster, a campus girls poster , a framed college bbal jersey and a soccer jersey from italy, a snowbaord in the corner, a muhammed ali poster and a guitar chord poster with a guitar and amp below it. Lastly a 18 inch tv with dvd player on a chest.

If you like it, that’s what matters. As for the Hawaiian Tropic poster, I’d ditch it. What will your future girlfriend think?

Does it seem like soccer aficionados speak a language all their own? It sure seems like it to me, and I’ve been playing the game for over 20 years. I put an article on the front page of this blog to help explain the most common soccer terms in plain English. Hopefully this list will help soccer moms everywhere (and soccer dads too, for that matter)to better understand what their little athlete is talking about! Click Here For Access: Soccer Terms.
