Loro 1

An obstacle was that Sorrentino's usual Italian co-financier Medusa Film, which is controlled by Berlusconi, was not willing to participate in this production.

The 145 minutes cut of the movie, simply called "Loro", was shown in italian cinemas on September 13, 2018. This new cut, which combines scenes from both "Loro 1" and "Loro 2", has been made in order to allow the movie to run for the 91st Academy Awards and to compete in international festivals as a standalone film.
