Bud Spencer will be honoured twice in Italy next weekend. On Saturday, June 1st, the first road in Italy will be named after Bud Spencer in the town of Fontevivo / Ponte Taro near Parma. Bud's son Giuseppe is also expected to attend the opening ceremony of the "Via Carlo Pedersoli". There will also be events to honour Bud throughout the day, including a western set, film screenings and an evening concert by the "Dune Buggy Band", which will play soundtracks from the films.
On Sunday, June 2nd, Italy will finally get its Bud Spencer statue. It will be inaugurated at 6 pm in Livorno on the Mediterranean. The location was not chosen by chance, because in Livorno the two Bud Spencer films They called him Bulldozer and Bomber were shot. The statue then shows Bud Spencer as "Bulldozer" looking out at the sea. All three children of Bud Spencer will be present at the ceremonial unveiling of the statue. |
