    Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “Salvatore: Shoemaker of Dreams” showing Dec. 9-15 at the Mary D. Fisher and Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatres.

    “Salvatore: Shoemaker of Dreams” is a portrait of a man whose vision, passion, and craftsmanship made him “shoemaker to the stars,” an architect of Hollywood magic, and an enduring cultural, fashion, and artistic influence.

    Growing up poor in Bonito, Italy, Salvatore Ferragamo began his career as a shoemaker before he was barely a teenager. Immigrating to America in 1915 at the age of 16, his work would soon help invent the glamour of Hollywood’s silent era as he created shoes for iconic films including “The Thief of Bagdad” and “The Ten Commandments” and for stars including Gloria Swanson, Mary Pickford, and Douglas Fairbanks, many of whom became his friends.

    Overcoming a Depression-era setback, Ferragamo rebounded and would define mid-century elegance for performers including Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Bette Davis, Rita Hayworth, and Ingrid Bergman — all while embarking on a love story and warm family life with his wife, Wanda, and their six children.

    In “Salvatore: Shoemaker of Dreams”, Academy Award-nominated and BAFTA-nominated filmmaker Luca Guadagnino tracks Ferragamo’s life from humble beginnings to California and to a storied studio in Florence, Italy.

    The film features Emmy-nominated actor Michael Stuhlbarg narrating Ferragamo’s 1955 memoir; a trove of 100-year-old archival footage; an extraordinary “shoe ballet” created by stop-motion artist Pes; and incisive commentary by Martin Scorsese, Manolo Blahnik, Christian Louboutin, Vogue Creative Director Grace Coddington, Deadline Film Critic Todd McCarthy, Wanda Ferragamo, and Wanda and Salvatore’s children and grandchildren.

    “Salvatore: Shoemaker of Dreams” is a must-see for those how love Hollywood, the movies and fashion!

    “Salvatore: Shoemaker of Dreams” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher and Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatres Dec. 9-15. Showtimes will be 3:30 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 9; 7:00 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 11; 6:30 p.m. on Monday and Wednesday, Dec. 12 and 14; and 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday and Thursday, Dec. 13 and 15.

    From Protest Signs to Missiles: Why Peace Needs Teeth
    .By Tommy Acosta

    As a child of the ’60s, I grew up hating war—protesting and demonstrating against them, uncovering as a writer the global military-industrial complex, and seeking peace with my pen. Through the years, I saw myself as a herald—someone who could help people, through my writings, liberate themselves from programmed ignorance and institutionalized stupidity. Well, now that I am in the third act of my life, my understanding of how the world works has changed.
