![]() ![]() Let’s wait to see it and then comment, shall we? This may even produce a romantic, yet realistic picture of the city, amending certain stereotypes and attracting more tourists. Naples fate won’t be changed by such a little thing like this documentary. I’m getting too far now, let’s stick to the topic. Where life have been expressing itself this way since millennia, wearing out people’s soul. Where fear strangles honesty and business, corruption reaches every level of government. They all tell the same story, which is the the true story, of a city where civil cohabitation and respect are subject to personal ambitions and ignorance. I wonder if you had the same reaction to Gomorra (both the book or the movie), or the old Sergio Zavoli documentary called “Le vele”. ![]() It is NG who changed contents and titles in such an offending way and it is useless to attack Bob for this. ![]() We found so much beauty and poetry in Naples, and we tried to translate it into the film.īob Arno stated clearly that Naples is not the world capital of pickpocketing, but it is where the guys master this “craft” at its best. You may want to see the film first and then comment (I wait to do so) because we all came to Naples to show the city and its humanity.Įventually our target was to play with the pickpockets working there. Instead of complaining about NG, people should apply pressure to politicians, civil servants, and ultimately fight the real criminals who are killing Naples.īut rest assured that the good things of Naples go around the world as the bad things, so it is a fair picture the one foreigners have of it. You may give the best imagine out to the world, but as soon as you get out of the airport, the train station or the port the truth is there to show the city for what it is. We can’t hide the city’s problems, we can’t lie about them. I was born in Naples, where I lived until 10 years ago, so I share the inner point of you as you do. There might be some reconstruction (I haven’t seen the final cut, but I know we shot them) but most of it is pure reality. I say documentary because most of the people you’ll see in the programme just play their own part, the one they play in real life. My name is Michele and I am one of the crew who shot the documentary. I will post schedules as I receive them.ĪND, I will soon republish the series of behind-the-scenes, making-of posts I wrote during the shoot.Įdit: Watch the entire National Geographic documentary, Pickpocket King. The documentary’s international premiere begins this month, region by region and week by week. ![]() You and I do the same thing, but you make people laugh. Bob and Bambi are invited to a splendid dinner with thieves, where lively thefts intersperse the endless courses. The thieves demonstrate their trickiest (and most lucrative) steals. In the film, stage pickpocket Bob Arno faces off against a gang of the world’s best criminal pickpockets. National Geographic has just posted a clip. Pickpocket King features us, Bob Arno and Bambi Vincent, as “thiefhunters in paradise.” The paradise we chose for the story is the warm and wild city of Naples, Italy, home to the world’s best pickpockets. It does not store any personal data.Bob and I are thrilled to announce the world premiere of the documentary we shot late last year with National Geographic.
