Description de l'ouvrage :
Marco Bellano's open access book reconstructs the history of the production of Allegro non Troppo, on the basis of an original research developed with the contribution of Bozzetto himself; it also presents an audiovisual analysis of the work, as to reassess the international relevance of Bozzetto's achievements by giving insight into the director's creative process.
"A film that will let you see the music and listen to drawings; in a word, a film full of Fantasia!" Bruno Bozzetto's Allegro non Troppo tips its hand right away: it is an unabashed, yet full of admiration, retake on Walt Disney's 1940 "concert feature". The obvious nod to that model fuels many tongue-in-cheek jokes in the film; however, Allegro non Troppo soon departs from mere parody, and becomes a showcase for the multifaceted aesthetics of Italian animation in 1976, as well as a witty social satire and a powerful rethinking of the music-image relationship in cinema.

Revue de Presse :
"Marco Bellano presents a comprehensive study of Bruno Bozetto's Allegro non Troppo, the infamous satire of Disney's Fantasia and perhaps the most famous of Italian feature animation.

Highly recommended!" ―Maureen Furniss, Co-Director of the Experimental Animation Program, California Institute of the Arts, USA

Combining his expertise in animation and music, he excels with in-depth-research and meticulous audio-visual analysis. A must-read for any animation enthusiast and a highly significant contribution to Italian animation history." ―Assoc. Prof. Hannes Rall, Associate Chair Research at the School of Art, Design and Media, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
"Marco has produced a scholarly work accessible to a wide audience, from academics to artists and music lovers. His unique multidisciplinary background has given life to an inspiring text where the voice of the self-proclaimed 'eternal amateur' Bruno Bozzetto can be heard throughout. The book also offers a terrific short history of animation production in Italy from its conception to the '70s of Allegro non Troppo. In just a few pages Marco manages to capture the joys and tribulations of the artists and artisans who adopted animation as a creative language that allowed them to extend their artistic search beyond the canvas. A remarkable accomplishment!" ―Tony Tarantini, Sheridan Honours Bachelor of Animation, Sheridan College, Canada
