Get ready, Paola Cortellesi fans! Carlo Verdone is making a new comedy that he and Paola will star in and Verdone will direct. Vicini Per Caso (Neighbors By Chance) is the title and it will begin filming in September and ready for Valentine’s Day.
“It’s the story of a father that had never been a father, hadn’t paid much attention to his family having left them when they were little, forgetting their birthdays and other things, but leaving them economically lacking nothing. He’s rich and has a vivacious girlfriend”, says Verdone, “but one evening during a party there’s a telephone call from his son telling him that his mother has died. The film begins as the father returns home to be a real father.”

“Paola Cortellesi will play the neighbor “in which the children will find a point of reference that will be crucial to getting them through the hard time, but in the end will light a spark in me too.”
Paola is funny and adorable, the perfect choice for a Carlo Verdone comedy. Here she is in one of my all time favorites, the Aldo, Giovanni and Giacomo comedy, Tu La Conosci Claudia.
