Pinocchio (1972 film)

Pinocchio Italian Un burattino di nome Pinocchio, literally A puppet named Pinocchio is a 1972 Italian animated film adaptation of Carlo Collodis The Adventures of Pinocchio.

Renato Rascel was chosen to serve as both the singer of the introductory song and as the narrator. He was permitted to occasionally ad lib in order to get the films message across, and to give it a truly Italian feel.The characters were animated with unconventional uniform black outlines which contrasted with the complex styles characteristic of usual Italian animations and Disney films. For the design of Pinocchio, the animators took inspiration to illustrations made by Attilio Mussino. The backgrounds were painted by Sicillian artist Alberto DAngelo and Abramo Scortecci who both used tone styles evocative of early 20thcentury Italian art with little focus on surrealism as in the Disney adaptation. ........
