2011 David di Donatello Awards for Italian film - nominations


Gian Luigi Rondi, the President of the Accademia del Cinema Italiano (Academy of Italian Cinema) announced the nominations today for the 55th edition of the David di Donatello Awards for Italian cinema. The awards are named in honour of the famous statue whose likeness it bears.

The historical drama Noi Credevamo (We Believed) by Mario Martone led with 13 nominations. In addition to Best Film and Best Director, it received nominations for Best Screenplay and Best Producer. However, it was shut out of the acting categories.

The other nominees for Best Film were Rocco Papaleo's Basilicata Coast to Coast, Luca Miniero's Benvenuti al Sud (Welcome to the South), Daniele Luchetti's La nostra vita (Our Life) and Claudio Cupellini, Una vita tranquilla (A Tranquil Life). All except Rocco Papaleo also received a nomination for Best Director. Benvenuti al Sud (Welcome to the South) was second in nominations with 10. Basilicata Coast to Coast and La nostra vita were next with eight nominations each.

The nominees for Best European Film were Another Year, The King's Speech, Il segreto dei suoi occhi (The Secret in Their Eyes), Susanne Bier's Oscar-winner In un mondo migliore (In a Better World) and Uomini di Dio (Of Gods and Men). Canada's Denis Villeneuve received a Best Foreign Film nomination for Incendies, as did Hereafter, Black Swan, Inception and The Social Network.

Last year's big winners were Vincere and L'uomo che verrà (The Man Who Will Come).

1,684 members of the Accademia del Cinema Italiano vote on the results. The winners will be revealed at the awards ceremony on May 6 in Rome.
