Even though Adrian had finished shooting "Malena" by late October, he hadn't left Italy because Tornatore's new movie was about to premiere, and he had promised to attend. Thus, on the 20th, many journalists captured his photo outside the Massimo Theatre in Palermo, Sicily, along with Monica's.
Compared to the big productions in Hollywood, the premiere of "The Legend of 1900" directed by Tornatore seemed a bit modest, although the Massimo Theatre had its history, it didn't quite match his directorial stature. However, it wasn't a big deal, as the so-called modesty was only relative; entertainment journalists, celebrity guests, and large posters were all present.
