(by Francesca Proietti Cosimi) This is how Marina Paterna comments in a post dedicated to the Actor Giorgio Tirabassi after her sudden heart attack.
"The first true gentleman, the first actor, my first film by his side as Assistant Director. My first time as a Sicilian coach while allowing me to correct and transform his Roman accent into the Palermo one. My first time on my first set and my debut in the world of cinema was Giorgio with you in the film in which you played Paolo Borsellino. I know those faces one by one. "
The director refers to the photo of the shared post on the Facebook social network on her Antimafia page I AM ALIVE! dedicated to all the victims, mafia or not, death unfairly.
Thus, Marina Paterna, in her official post, continues saying:
"For several weeks you have been my family. Giorgio your reassuring smile, for me, remains unforgettable. The first time you starred in your film, you recognized me in a thousand, I never thought it possible. Your extraordinary humility is indelible in my heart. Don't give up, even if from far away I am and will always stay with you, Marina Paterna. #forzaGiorgio "
The current situation of the Actor is stable. Remain in observation after being treated by doctors. He is conscious and on the phone he tried to reassure everyone, apologizing even to the audience that had filled the room to meet him: he waited for the medical bulletin to understand what the consequences of this heart attack were.
