Holy Honorarium!
The Giffoni Film Festival GFF was born in 1971 from a Claudio Gubitosi idea: i.e. promoting and developing cinema for young people elevating it from the marginal position it had back in those days, and leading it where it belongs , e.g. a high quality genre capable of “penetrating” the market.
That came from the festival's website. Why do we care?
Because in 1972, the festival's second year, the Best Film award went to the Batman feature.
And you thought all those awards were bogus.
