00:00You know that I have to be careful, every morning I get up slowly from bed,

00:04that if I do it too fast...

00:06An icon of Italian dubbing.

00:08From Nemo to Spider-Man.

00:10Alex Polidori, among the most charming voices of Italian cinema,

00:14is 29 years old and already has a career in the world of dubbing,

00:18started 25 years ago.

00:21The characters to whom he lent his voice are many,

00:24but the one who brought him closer to the audience is only one.

00:28Spider-Man has changed my life a bit,

00:30in some way, at least professionally,

00:32because it allowed me to get closer to people,

00:35especially to children, families,

00:38and also to go to a lot of events,

00:41these fairs, the nerd theme,

00:44where many are fans of that world, of superheroes.

00:48So, surely these characters,

00:51like Spider-Man,

00:54that bring you closer to the audience,

00:57from the darkness of the room,

00:59they bring you a little outside

01:01and make you create a connection with people,

01:03are the ones that bring you closer to the heart,

01:05because you see the affection of people,

01:07who are affectionate to the character,

01:09also thanks to your voice.

01:11It is the Italian voice of Bob Dylan in Accomplita Noon,

01:14the biopic about the singer-songwriter,

01:16played by Timothée Chalamet,

01:18actor to whom Alex Polidori

01:20lent his voice in most of his films.

01:24Chalamet has often played quite similar roles,

01:28for a while,

01:30because his great personality then emerged,

01:34always a little magnetic, a little cryptic,

01:37not too much above the lines.

01:39So, as long as it was like that,

01:41it was quite simple,

01:43because more or less he did the same thing,

01:46but they put him to play roles

01:48always very suitable for him,

01:50his way of using the face,

01:52the expressions, the eyes.

01:54Then he started to play some more roles,

01:57already on Dune he is very cryptic,

02:00but there is also the action,

02:02he becomes almost a leader,

02:04so there are the most shouted parts,

02:06of leadership,

02:08so already there it was a different thing.

02:10Then Wonka, instead, is a little more candid,

02:12a little more above the lines,

02:14always with his elegance,

02:16but where there are different facets,

02:18everything has to be much more positive,

02:20much more cheerful,

02:22a little crazy,

02:24but in a positive way,

02:26a little eclectic.

02:28And then Bob Dylan,

02:30which is all much more subdued,

02:33always very closed to himself,

02:36few words,

02:38with his mouth almost closed.

02:42So it would be easier

02:44to differentiate

02:46with different actors,

02:48instead with the same actor

02:50you are used to put your voice

02:52on that face in a certain way,

02:54when you have to change a lot,

02:56it's not easy,

02:58then you do it because

03:00actually someone thinks

03:02that dubbing good actors

03:04is very complicated,

03:06and it is,

03:08because you have to be at the level

03:10to follow, because the interpretations

03:12are so on fire that you know

03:14what you have to do.

03:16A solid career as an actor,

03:18dubber and singer-songwriter,

03:20active in the world of the show

03:22from an early age,

03:24when he was noticed by Mike Bongiorno

03:26in the broadcast Bravo Bravissimo,

03:28a child prodigy.

03:30I was a bit of a troublemaker,

03:32they said the ballet,

03:34in fact I entered with my legs stretched

03:36during the presentations of the competitors

03:38and I wanted to tell the jokes,

03:40there was Mike on stage

03:42who had to treat me badly,

03:44I had to say,

03:46but who are you,

03:48why do you interrupt me,

03:50can I tell you a joke?

03:52It was very funny,

03:54and the nice thing is that

03:56then he kept us out

03:58behind the scenes

04:00to specify that he did not want

04:02to treat me badly,

04:04because on stage he was also

04:06always giving a tone,

04:08that was very nice,

04:10and with Frassica,

04:12instead,

04:14as if he were an uncle,

04:16a television dad,

04:18because anyway,

04:20when I was 4-5 years old

04:22he brought me on TV,

04:24on Sundays a lot of broadcasts,

04:26up to 16 years old,

04:28he accompanied me throughout my childhood

04:30and above all he brought me

04:32to do a Sanremo,

04:34I can say I've been to Sanremo,

04:36not as a singer yet,

04:38I hope one day!
