ABSTRACT In an entagled historiographical frame - at the crossroads of the history of film festivals and the cultural history of European integration – the object of the present article is the study of the “European Film Day” (Giornata del film europeo) held as part of the Venice Film Festival between 1956 and 1960. The article’s purposes are, firstly, to understand the reasons leading to the organization of the event; secondly, to establish the role of the governing bodies in the Venice Film Festival and the European institutions in the conception of the initiative; finally, to determine the causes bringing the experience to an end. The study of the EFD shows the ambivalent relationship between VFF director Ammannati and European institutions involved in cinematic activities those years. Ammannati was strategic in his quick organisation of the first EFD in 1956, after having learnt of the European institutions’ project to award the prize in other film festivals. Italian director’s tactics formed part of the long-standing strategy in the competition between international film festivals. After 1960, the Day was no longer organized. The end of Ammannati’s management and the insufficient involvement of European institutions represent the main reasons of its quickly ending. Main research sources come from ASAC (Archivio Storico delle Arti Contemporanee).

威尼斯“欧洲电影节”：在电影节和欧洲媒体政策之间（1956-1960）

摘要在一个历史悠久的历史学框架中-电影节历史和欧洲融合的文化历史的交汇处-本文的目的是研究“欧洲电影日”（Giornata del film europeo），该电影节是1956年至1960年的威尼斯电影节。本文的目的是，首先，了解导致此次活动组织的原因；第二，确立理事机构在威尼斯电影节和欧洲机构中的倡议构想；最后，确定导致体验终结的原因。对EFD的研究表明，VFF导演安曼纳提（Ammannati）与那些年从事电影活动的欧洲机构之间存在着矛盾的关系。在得知欧洲机构计划在其他电影节上获奖后，Ammannati在1956年迅速组织第一届EFD时具有战略意义。意大利导演的策略是国际电影节竞争中长期战略的一部分。1960年以后，这一天不再组织了。Ammannati管理的结束和欧洲机构的参与不足是其迅速结束的主要原因。主要研究来源来自ASAC（Archivio Storico delle Arti Contemporanee）。该日已不再井井有条。Ammannati管理的结束和欧洲机构的参与不足是其迅速结束的主要原因。主要研究来源来自ASAC（Archivio Storico delle Arti Contemporanee）。该日已不再井井有条。Ammannati管理的结束和欧洲机构的参与不足是其迅速结束的主要原因。主要研究来源来自ASAC（Archivio Storico delle Arti Contemporanee）。
