Alain Delon to play Silvio Berlusconi in film adaptation of Italy's escort girl scandal.

Italy’s most famous escort girl, Patrizia d’Addario , continues to great waves in the country, with a film adaptation of the d’Addario biography on the cards.

At the recent 2010 Sanremo festival , d’Addario dropped a hint that none other than Quentin Tarantino would direct the film based on her biography and the scandal of Italy’s prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi , and his escort girls.

Italy’s most famous escort girl, Patrizia d’Addario, continues to great waves in the country, with a film adaptation of the d’Addario biography on the cards.

At the recent 2010 Sanremo festival, d’Addario dropped a hint that none other than Quentin Tarantino would direct the film based on her biography and the scandal of Italy’s prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi, and his escort girls.

After the rumours surrounding Tarantino (now fizzled out), another famous face is at the centre of the gossip from Italy, this time in the form of actor Alain Delon.

Reported to play Berlusconi himself in the film, the rumours have so far been denied, as has the reported two million euros for the part.
There seems to be no question, however, that the film will be made, with Gioele Centanni as producer, and Dario Cioni as director.
Executive producer would be Raffaello Saragò, also a veteran in Italian film making circles.

While I haven’t read the biography, we can only hope for something of quality that won’t play into the propaganda machine that already gives fuel to the Berlusconi fire.
I’m not holding my breath though.
Executive producer Saragò says: “It won’t be a political film. I’m neither right wing nor left wing. It will be a story about a life lived: intense and even painful.
If one night Patrizia went where she went and met the Prime Minister, she’s certainly not the only one to have found herself in that position.”

Meanwhile, the constant “Patrizia is the victim and Berlusconi the hero who sows his seeds” roles continue to play out.
D’Addario was actually at Sanremo to promote her new single and first venture into the music world and, surprise surprise, the lady will play herself in the film.
An escort girl turned Italian diva is hardly a turn-out for the books.
