Nel pieno dell’emergenza Coronavirus Gwyneth Paltrow ha voluto dedicare una lettera d’amore all’Italia, luogo in cui ha trascorso alcuni dei momenti più importanti della sua vita.
Gwyneth Paltrow: la lettera all’Italia
Con una lettera intrisa di coraggio e d’amore, Gwyneth Paltrow ha voluto esprimere tutta la sua solidarietà all’Italia durante questo momento complicato causato dall’emergenza Coronavirus. L’attrice ha ricordato anche che in Italia ha festeggiato il suo 30esimo compleanno e ha perso suo padre, morto proprio mentre si trovava con lei nel Bel Paese. Sempre in Italia Gwyneth Paltrow avrebbe ricevuto la proposta di matrimonio dell’attuale marito, Brad Falchuk, e per lei l’Italia è sempre stata una realtà da imitare, per quanto possibile.

My first trip to Italy was at the end of 1991. I had miraculously booked a TV movie that would start in the new year, so I quit my job at the fish restaurant in Santa Monica, borrowed money from my agent, and hopped on a plane. I met up with a college friend and we traversed the north on trains, spending Christmas with some family friends who were nonetheless strangers, and ending up in Venice. My next trip there was a few years later, when we moved to Rome to start preproduction on The Talented Mr. Ripley. I spent months succumbing to the delicious wildness of the south, with its incredible food and warm-hearted entropy. As it’s transpired, I have had some of life’s most profound happenings occur in Italy: My father died in Rome when we were on a road trip for my thirtieth birthday; Brad proposed to me in Umbria in 2017. Italy is a place we return to over and over. It is a country that believes deeply in the artisan, the family, the handmade, slow-grown quality of its goods. We make our G. Label clothing in its factories and, as it turns out, stock up on its low-temp-dried pasta, Neapolitan tomatoes, and fragrant olive oil during times at home. When this crisis started, we held Italy, China, South Korea, Iran, and the other countries affected in our prayers, and now we have all followed suit. Each of these places has shown us what strength, resilience, and community can do during these surreal times, strictly restricting movement, with some even singing from their balconies. I wish for all of us to heed these very real warnings so that this unprecedented crisis might pass quickly. Stay home. Make pasta. FaceTime your grandma. We will get through this.

“Ci ha mostrato cosa significa la forza, la resilienza e il senso di comunità che dobbiamo mettere in campo in questi tempi surreali, sentirsi vicini anche con una canzone cantata sui balconi”, ha scritto l’attrice, augurandosi che al più presto l’emergenza Coronavirus possa passare e far tornare il paese migliore di quello che era prima.
