Itried to place myself in front of the events of a century ago, the way a documentaristwould have done who had the good fortune to follow Garibaldi's campaign with hiscamera. - Roberto RosselliniTo celebrate the centenary of Italy, the Italian government commissioned Rossellini tomake a biopic of Giuseppe Garibaldi, one that would follow his exploits with 'theThousand' and their role in the country's unification.
