Films About Twin Brothers
A film, also known as a movie or motion picture, is a work of visual art that simulates experiences and otherwise communicates ideas, stories, perceptions, emotions, or atmosphere through the use of moving images that are generally, since the 1930s, synchronized with sound and (less commonly) other sensory stimulations. Etymology and alternative terms The name "film" originally referred to the thin layer of photochemical emulsion on the celluloid strip that used to be the actual medium for recording and displaying motion pictures. Many other terms exist for an individual motion-picture, including "picture", "picture show", "moving picture", "photoplay", and "flick". The most common term in the United States is "movie", while in Europe, "film" is preferred. Archaic terms include "animated pictures" and "animated photography". "Flick" is, in general a slang term, first recorded in 1926. It originates in the verb flicker, owing to the flickering appearance of early films. ...

Despite a record number of film releases, many films failed at the box office, and ticket sales were down 17% compared with 1984. Industry executives believed the problem, in part, was a lack of original concepts. Films about fantasy and magic failed, as audiences leaned towards science-fiction. Janet Maslin said the fault for this lay partly with Steven Spielberg, who had created such a successful template with films like '' E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial'' and '' Close En ...

Pietro Ghislandi
Pietro Ghislandi (19 April 1957 – June 2025) was an Italian actor. Life and career Ghislandi was introduced to the public as a ventriloquist and was a finalist in the 1986/87 edition of the RaiUno program Fantastico 7 with his dummy Sergio. In 1985 he worked as a stand-in for Renato Pozzetto in the movie ''È arrivato mio fratello''. Immediately after, he had a small part in ''Grandi magazzini'' and performed in many commercials. In 1987 in ''Soldati – 365 all’alba,'' he played a gay recruit. Thanks to his expressive skills and to his surreal acting, similar to the already mentioned Renato Pozzetto, Ghislandi was often asked to play roles as character actor, working both in the cinema and on television, without until much later getting lead roles. He boasted roles in important films like ''Il muro di gomma'' of Marco Risi, ''I mitici – Colpo gobbo a Milano'' of Carlo Vanzina, '' Vajont'' and '' Porzûs'' of Renzo Martinelli and, later, was one of the actors chosen ...
