” Maradona is the only one who has always remained outside the system saying no to Juventus as to Blatter, without ever sitting at those tables. It remains an icon. Sarri had the same popularity as Diego in Napoli for some time. But in the end, after advocating the attack on the building, he went to work in that building. ” This is how Massimiliano Gallo, actor and cinematographer, explains his bitterness on the day of Sarri’s formalization at Juventus.
Gallo in the last year has made a documentary Maurizio, il Sarrismo – A wonderful anomaly, which a few days ago was presented at the Biografilm Festival in Bologna and which could now be modified, even after having risked being withdrawn. “We thought – confirms Gallo – of withdrawing it and after the screening in Bologna we are still deciding whether to place it and how. The choice of belly would be to lock it in a drawer. But the head tells us that this is a nice story we worked on for a year. It will be revised and reassembled but the story should not be deleted. We will make a reflection and then we will understand where to project it, also in Napoli .
Gallo dwells above all on the message that comes from the story and on the creation of the myth of “Sarrismo”, a term even inserted in the Treccani encyclopedia. It is not a beautiful message that we give to young people – he explains – because it is like telling children that nothing is worth, justifying it with professional choices. Lately it is said that icons are dangerous, but I want to believe in icons and if it is no longer possible to do it in football I will move away from following it, because knowing that they are only professionals who play and train takes away the passion “.
The actor points out that “The Neapolitans – says Gallo – did not project the image of Sarri as Che Guevara on their own,” as commander. It was he who gave a precise image for three years, as a skilled communicator, he spoke of “attacking the building” of having to have “striped shirts” to have the rigors. Lippi also coached in Napoli and then went to Juventus but he is still very much loved here, because he has always kept a neutral, professional attitude, if you have an idea of professionalism then it is better not to make such statements in a hot square like Napoli , where now I think Sarri will not be welcome. I also know that many Juventus fans do not appreciate his arrival and to those of them who are writing to me on social media I say that they are not words against the Bianconeri, but on the myth built by Sarri and then demolished by himself .
