Some members of the Sassari Brigade band on the set of the Clooney TV series
OLBIA. Dimonios in front of the clapperboard. The gang of the Sassari Brigade ends in an American TV series. Of course it is the work of George Clooney. The production of «Catch 22», needed a band for an important scene. And so he recruited the band of the Dimonios, now one of the undisputed symbols of Sardinia, both on the island and overseas. A real coup. After an agreement signed with the Army General Staff, the thirty musicians of Sassari,

directed by the first marshal Lieutenant Andrea Atzeni, they are improvised actors.

"Clooney has simple tastes, he loves pasta with tomato sauce, he alternates sea bass with sushi and sashimi, but his favorite dish is tuna tartare", confided to the weekly OGGI, from tomorrow on newsstands, Enza Bernardo, owner of the restaurant Al Marino of Puntaldia, in Sardinia. Here Clooney has rented a villa to accommodate Amal and their twins (and TODAY publishes photos of their arrival on the island), while on the set of the TV series "Comma 22".

The restaurateur goes on: "He knows what he wants on wine, he can start with a prosecco, but then he goes to red, usually he drinks Le Difese, a Tuscan wine, but he also likes Sardinian wines like Cannonau and Carignano. approached with the tray of sweets made by us, he looks at me and tells me: 'You are the devil' ".

But who would have thought that a Hollywood star, above all the film's director, would have shoveled excrement of goats deposited by these irreverent extras on the set in the province of Olbia. And instead George Clooney, behind the camera for "Catch 22", a film set in the second world war and entirely set in Gallura, has rolled up his sleeves and started this "dirty work" without asking anyone for help. These are the anecdotes that filter almost daily from the headquarters of the disused Venafiorita airport, just outside Olbia, and which strike the curiosity and imagination of many. Yesterday was the newspaper La Stampa of Turin to report the history of the goats and the hard cleaning of the set by the former pediatrician of ER. To tell the facts was Edoardo Martino, thirty-seven Roman, who with his company Zoo Grunwald supplies of animals of any kind film sets, fiction, TV programs, theater and advertising. Martino's family has been doing this strange job for over fifty years and there is no request that it should not be satisfied. From the legendary little bird of Del Piero to the camel of Fiorello, from the dog of the commissioner Rocca to the donkeys of "A un passo dal cielo" are all animals supplied by Martino, just ask and he provides. As for "Catch 22" the enterprising entrepreneur presented himself on the set with fifty goats, as had been requested, to create a very complex scene. And the drawback, perhaps among the most classic with the animals on stage, has been quite evident after a short time that the goats were circulating among the cameras. Dung balls scattered almost everywhere that the American actor has taken steps to remove himself with a shovel. No problem therefore, fact that confirms the simplicity of this star that in Sardinia has already become known to be a person in hand who does not refuse, indeed the opposite, contact with the locals.

Availability that not always Edoardo Martino has found in his work. Alla Stampa reported that one of the most problematic directors was Martin Scorsese. "We were on the set of" Gangs of New York "at Cinecittà. Scorsese is known for being manic in his work and me
I was having to manage a room full of cages with canaries, I was an intrusive presence in short, and I remember having received some dirty looks ... ». George, on the other hand, is different, and so he has not decomposed for the incontinence of sheep and indeed he has armed himself with a shovel and a lot of patience.
