Poster for Davide Melini’s ‘The Sweet Hand of the White Rose’
Davide Melini is one director I’ve been keeping my eye on. After reviewing his short film, The Puzzle, I was impressed with the Italian director’s work and now there’s another film of Melini’s I’m looking forward to, The Sweet Hand of the White Rose.
Melini is getting ready to release a trailer for the film, but for now I’ve posted the new one sheet to get you ready for more. “You Cannot Run from Fate,” reads the tagline and from the look of things so far it doesn’t seem like I’d want to. Melini’s style and filmmaking history (which includes an …read more
