Enjoy the Taormina Film Festival in Style with Citalia this June

    WEST SUSSEX, ENGLAND, June 24, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Set high on Sicily's Monte Tauro in picturesque natural beauty and commanding breathtaking views over two rugged bays below, Taormina has captured the imagination of great travellers and writers for many decades With its charming pedestrianised streets and small piazzas, it enjoys stunning views of the coast with Mount Etna rising in the distance.

As such, it is the perfect setting to celebrate creativity at the upcoming Taormina Film Festival (June 11-18). Now in its 57th year, the Festival shows a range of Hollywood and independent movies, as well as playing host to the international stars who love to come and enjoy the glitz in these perfect surroundings. Last year's guests and award-winners included Colin Firth and Robert De Niro, who also honoured festival audiences with their Master Classes. This year, the festival is focusing very much on 3D - opening with Kung Fu Panda 2, (with Jack Black in attendance of course), and also showing Italy's very first 3D movie, Parking Lot, directed by Francesco Gasperoni.
