After a ten-year break, Giuliano Montaldo (Grand Slam, Sacco & Vanzetti, Time to kill) is going back behind the camera with a movie called St. Petersburg, about the last days in the life of Fedor Dostoevsky. The movie, budgeted at 7m euros, will start shooting at the beginning of 2007 and will be produced by Jean Vigo Italia and Rai Cinema. Curiously, Montaldo recently starred in Nanni Moretti’s Il Caimano (Italy, 2006) as an old master handling a lower-than-low budget movie about Cristoforo Colombo.
