Storie della Grande Guerra è l'appuntamento di 100 anni di storie che raccoglie settimanalmente alcune tra le pillole andate in onda quotidianamente durante i precedenti sette giorni. A ciò si aggiungono ulteriori storie, raccontate con la consueta competenza da Carlo Lucarelli.

In questa prima puntata, ad esempio, scopriamo come Charlie Chaplin abbia raccontato la Grande Guerra. Il 2 febbraio 1914 il mondo ancora non sa di essere sull'orlo del precipizio. Quel giorno negli Stati Uniti esce un cortometraggio, un piccolo film comico di un attore nuovo, giovane e ancora sconosciuto. Lui si chiama Charlie Spencer Chaplin, è inglese di origini povere, ma qualcuno gli ha dato fiducia.

Il suo film si chiama Making a living, guadagnarsi la vita, Chaplin non ha ancora inventato il suo personaggio avvincente, quello che noi chiamiamo Charlot, ma il film funziona, fa ridere, e va fin da subito bene. Da quel momento per Charlie Chaplin guadagnarsi la vita non sarà più un problema. Quattro anni più tardi nel 1918, a guerra finita, Chaplin è una star. Ha appena realizzato il suo capolavoro Shoulder Arms, Charlot Soldato, 41 minuti di intelligentissime risate attorno al dramma più grande che l'umanità abbia mai vissuto fino a quel momento.

Ha rischiato grosso Chaplin ma ha vinto la scommessa: il suo personaggio sogna di essere un eroe e si lancia travestito da albero in mezzo ai nemici tedeschi, riesce addirittura ad ingannare il Kaiser e a farlo prigioniero. Poi però si risveglia. In guerra sembra dirci, non ci sono eroi ma soltanto omini, solo carne da macello. Ecco il cinema, la Grande Guerra ha comiciato a raccontarla così.

00:00Thank you all.
00:57Thank you all.
01:00But someone trusted him.
01:02His film is called Making Life.
01:06Chaplin hadn't yet invented his winning character, the one we call Sherlock, but the film works.
01:12It's funny, it's immediately popular, and from that moment on, earning a living will no longer be a problem for Charlie Chaplin.
01:19Four years later, in 1918, when the First World War ended, Chaplin had become a star.
01:26He goes from one million-dollar contract to another, with the major labels fighting over him with their paychecks.
01:32Just made his first masterpiece, Shoulder Arms, here, Sherlock Dato.
01:3741 minutes of highly intelligent laughter surrounding the greatest drama that humanity has ever experienced up to that point.
01:46Chaplin took a big risk, but he won the bet.
01:49His little man dreams of being a hero.
01:51He throws himself, disguised as a tree, into the midst of the German enemies.
01:56He even manages to deceive the Kaiser and take him prisoner.
01:59But then he wakes up.
02:01In war, it seems to tell us, there are no heroes, but only little men, cannon fodder.
02:07Well, cinema began to tell the story of the Great War like this.
02:22Dear parents, I am writing this sheet in the hope that there will be no need to send it to you.
02:28I can't help it.
02:30The danger is grave, imminent.
02:33I would regret not dedicating these moments of freedom to you to say a final farewell.
02:39He waited almost 40 years for this letter before finding eyes to read it.
02:45It was found in the 50s, stained with blood, but perfectly preserved.
02:51and legible on the mortal remains of a World War I soldier.
02:57I feel moved when I think of you, of what I leave behind, but I know how to show myself strong in front of my soldiers,
03:04calm and smiling.
03:05Besides, they too have very high morale.
03:09The writer is Lieutenant Adolfo Ferrero, an Alpine soldier from the Valdora battalion, from Turin, aged twenty.
03:18In five hours it's going to be hell here.
03:21The earth will tremble, the sky will darken, a thick fog will cover everything.
03:27and rumbles and thunders will resound among these mountains,
03:30dark as the explosions I hear in the distance at this very moment.
03:40It is the eve of the battle of Ortigara, on the Asiago plateau,
03:46one of the most symbolic places of the Great War.
03:49Dear Adermanno Olmi, who returned here this year to shoot a film,
03:54to find meaning in that Great War, a hundred years later.
04:02The last war he had yet, next to the crowd of destruction,
04:12the frenzy of the massacre of such a quantity of humanity,
04:20think that here alone more than 20,000 deaths.
04:23Well, it was a war that still had, so to speak, room for feelings.
04:32There was still the idea of ​​respect for others.
04:36In fact, between the two trenches, here at Malga Zebbio,
04:41There were eight meters between one trench and the other.
04:46and during these winters, where snow fell abundantly,
04:52they gave each other a hand, from here to the other side of their trench,
04:58here, recognizing themselves above all, so to speak, as men rather than belonging to this or that faction.
05:11For Olmi, in the middle of the snow, many young actors performed.
05:17When I was little, they took me on trips to these mountains here,
05:21they told me when they found the pearls, stuff like that.
05:25Even today, the bones of the fallen could still be found among the rocks.
05:31Well, there's definitely blood here.
05:33You know what happened here, what you expect, you know that wherever you look there is a history.
05:39You can see the war where it was.
05:41You can feel it a little, maybe.
05:48Oh parents, speak up.
05:50Talk to my little brothers about me in a few years, when they will be able to understand you,
05:56died at twenty for his country.
05:58Try to awaken in them the memory of me,
06:01which is painful, the thought of being forgotten by them.
06:11The letter from Lieutenant Paolo Ferrero, twenty years old, from Turin, an Alpine soldier,
06:18died in the battle of Ortigara,
06:20Today it welcomes those who wish to remember, at the entrance to the Asiago military shrine.
06:2654,286 bodies, almost 35,000 Italian, 20,000 Austro-Hungarian.
06:35More than 21,000 are unnamed,
06:38like the remains of the soldier on whom the letter was found.
07:02The remains of what was once one of the most powerful armies in the world
07:06they rise in disarray and without hope
07:09those valleys that they had descended with proud confidence.
07:13The victory bulletin of Italian Marshal Armando Diaz
07:17it ends like this, with these words.
07:19We know them practically by heart,
07:21because we found them in front of us every day,
07:23carved in marble, in each of our schools.
07:27But it is not with those words that we began to understand as children
07:30that for us the First World War is a family story.
07:34It was by walking through our squares that we understood it.
07:38Because there is no country, no matter how small or remote,
07:41that does not have a plaque, a gravestone or a monument
07:44to the fallen of the First World War
07:46and that makes us feel like the one of the great war
07:49be an Italian story, a shared story.
07:53In Sarajevo, where it all began a hundred years ago,
07:56it's not like that yet.
07:57This was not the case even for the centenary celebrations.
08:00Between demonstrations and counter-demonstrations,
08:03Sarajevo is still a divided city.
08:06Gavrilo Princip is a hero in East Sarajevo
08:09and a traitor in West Sarajevo.
08:14The assassination of Franz Ferdinand,
08:17still today with grey areas exactly like Kennedy's in 1963.
08:27He is the perpetrator, but we don't know who the instigators are.
08:34Ruthless terrorist or liberator of the Serbs,
08:38simple criminal or revolutionary idealist.
08:41For some he was the antichrist,
08:44for others a patriot.
08:47A hundred years have passed and people are still talking about him.
08:50Gavrilo Princip, 19, a Bosnian Serb student.
08:56I am a Yugoslav nationalist
08:58and I believe in the unification of all South Slavs,
09:01in any form,
09:03as long as they are free from Austria.
09:06The two gunshots fired in Sarajevo
09:09that morning of June 28, 1914
09:12they plunge an entire continent into darkness.
09:16I never thought that after the assassination there would be a war.
09:22I thought, yes,
09:23that would have an impact on young people
09:26that would thus carry our ideas forward.
09:30Bosnia and Herzegovina has been occupied and administered since 1878
09:36from the Austro-Hungarian Empire
09:38which declared its annexation in 1908
09:42putting an end to Serbian aspirations
09:45to unify the South Slavs.
09:48I don't feel like a criminal.
09:50I took out someone who was doing harm.
09:53Austria is evil for our people.
09:56Austria must not exist.
09:59Austria arrests Princip
10:02and locks him up in Teresin prison.
10:05A monument is erected at the site of the attack,
10:08a long stele
10:09dedicated to the two victims
10:12of Serbian nationalism.
10:16Serbia can be invaded but not conquered.
10:19Serbia will one day create Yugoslavia,
10:22mother of all South Slavs.
10:24Gavrilo Princip dies in prison
10:27in April 1918.
10:29He doesn't see the end of the war.
10:31He does not see the fall of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
10:35You won't even see the removal
10:37of the funeral monument of the victims
10:39of his shots
10:40and its replacement
10:42with a new registration.
10:45In this historic place
10:47Gavrilo Princip proclaimed freedom.
10:49The Sarajevo attacker
10:52he became a national hero.
10:55The plaque commemorating the patriotic Prince
10:58it lasts for a few decades
11:00until the new world war.
11:02In April 1941
11:04the Germans invade Bosnia
11:07and enter Sarajevo.
11:09When the Führer turns 52
11:12his officers decide
11:14to give him a special gift.
11:16The plaque of the Sarajevo attack
11:19removed for the occasion
11:21as this photograph shows
11:24published by the Serbian weekly Vriene.
11:27Revenge is bloody and sweet
11:30Princip had said at the trial
11:32but now it's for the Austrian Hitler
11:35that plaque is a war trophy.
11:39That gift from his officers
11:41a sweet revenge.
11:45But when in December 1945
11:48the Republic of Yugoslavia is born
11:51after the defeat of Germany
11:53and of Nazi madness
11:55the new Yugoslavia
11:56return to the corner of the Latin Bridge in Sarajevo
11:59and names it after Gavrilo Princip.
12:03Here on June 28, 1914
12:07Gavrilo Princip shooting
12:09he demonstrated the popular protest
12:11against tyranny
12:13and the secular aspiration
12:14of our peoples for freedom.
12:17In short, Tito's Yugoslavia
12:19return to the scene of the crime
12:21restoring a license plate
12:23which praises the young attacker.
12:25It will be the one that lasts the longest.
12:31Sarajevo will see again
12:33blood flow.
12:35In the early 90s
12:36the siege of the city
12:38It is one of the longest in history.
12:40The bridge named after Princip
12:42becomes a crossroads
12:44of the crossfire of snipers.
12:47At the end of the new one
12:48terrible war
12:49of Yugoslavia
12:51there is no trace left.
12:53The old license plate
12:54it is removed for the umpteenth time.
12:57The new Bosnia
12:58replace it with this one.
13:01In this place
13:03June 28, 1914
13:05Gavrilo Princip
13:07he assassinated the heir to the throne
13:08Franz Ferdinand
13:10and his wife Sofia.
13:12Today
13:12one hundred years after the attack
13:14the most famous
13:15of the bridges of Sarajevo
13:17he went back to calling himself
13:18Latin
13:19and Gavrilo Princip
13:21he went back to being just
13:24the assassin of Franz Ferdinand
13:27and his wife Sofia.
13:35In the film The Great War
13:36there is an illiterate soldier
13:38than to write to his girlfriend
13:40he gets help
13:40from the captain of the company.
13:42He answers him
13:43the parish priest of the village
13:44who writes on behalf of the girl
13:46she is also illiterate.
13:48At a certain point though
13:49the captain
13:49he starts to complain
13:51he's tired
13:52to exchange love letters
13:53with a parish priest.
13:55This is the eye of comedy
13:57on a tragedy
13:58like war
13:58but as always
14:00the comedy starts
14:01from the observation of reality.
14:03We write like crazy
14:04in Italy
14:05during the Great War.
14:074 billion letters
14:08and postcards
14:09they are sorted
14:10in those 3 and a half years.
14:122 billion
14:12they start from various fronts
14:14to reach their countries of origin.
14:161.5 billion
14:17takes the opposite route.
14:19They all write
14:20even those who can't write
14:21who gets help
14:22and then
14:23very quietly
14:24Often
14:24he tries it alone.
14:26In short
14:27it was a sort of
14:28it's never too late
14:29from the beginning of the century
14:30the first world war
14:31in Italy
14:32Alone
14:33that he didn't have
14:34the reassuring face
14:35and good-natured

14:59The First World War
15:01it's probably
15:02the first
15:03and the most important
15:04vector
15:05of communication
15:07and emancipation
15:09of literacy
15:10in Italy
15:11more than
15:12had not done
15:13before then
15:13the school.
15:20Before the Great War
15:2243 Italians
15:23out of 100
15:24they are illiterate.
15:25The elementary school
15:26it is mandatory
15:27and since 1911
15:29it has become
15:30state
15:30but the habit
15:32to frequent her
15:33it is not yet rooted.
15:35The farmers
15:36they're in a hurry
15:37to obtain
15:38a profit
15:38from work
15:39of their children
15:40in the fields
15:40and in general
15:42many parents
15:43they prefer
15:44that the greatest

15:46at school
15:47stay at home
15:48to take care of
15:49to the little ones.
15:51Who lives far away
15:52from inhabited centers
15:53then it often remains
15:54cut off
15:55because
15:56of long distances
15:57and the streets
15:59impassable.
16:01There are many of them
16:02to desert
16:03the lessons
16:03and the authorities

16:05indulgent
16:06or indifferent
16:07they do not apply
16:08the law
16:09but also
16:10who goes to school
16:11not always
16:12is able
16:13to write.
16:14In that one
16:14which is still
16:15a company
16:15archaic
16:16there are few
16:17the opportunities
16:18to apply
16:19what has been learned
16:20that's how you learn
16:22and then
16:23he forgets.

16:41First World War.
16:48Dearest wife

16:52in the present
16:53I am in good health
16:54and so I hope for you
16:55and our little girl.
16:59For many Italians
17:01the capacity
17:02to read
17:02and write
17:03will remain outside
17:04from everyday life
17:05until
17:06with the great war
17:08will not become
17:09a need.
17:13Every night
17:14I wake up
17:15and it doesn't seem like it to me
17:16true to be here.
17:18I always dream about myself

17:54some become literate
17:56they start writing
17:57to write badly
17:58but to write.
18:03There are those who learn
18:04in the soldier's houses
18:06where in addition to the activities
18:07of leisure
18:08they improvise
18:09literacy courses
18:11and there are those who learn
18:13in military hospitals
18:14during convalescence.
18:16Others
18:17they will return home
18:19with desire
18:20to learn to write
18:21or to send
18:22their children

18:58the hero
18:58of the Libyan resistance
19:00that with a few
19:01hundreds of rebels
19:02since 1911
19:03he drove me crazy
19:04the Italian colonizers.
19:06A folk hero

19:09when it arrives in Italy
19:10in 2009
19:10Colonel Gaddafi
19:12he carries it with him
19:13Omar's son himself
19:14and with him
19:15he goes down the steps

23:20correctly
23:21the future too
23:23economic
23:24of the region
23:25It looks promising
23:26realistically
23:27the Albanian knight
23:29summarizes
23:30the prosperous future
23:31and the profits
23:32they are far away
23:32study is needed
23:34huge capital
23:35and perseverance
23:36but for today
23:37there is the purchase
23:38the increased credit
23:39there is the increased
23:40respect
23:41for our country
23:42there is renewed confidence

23:44and they are enough for us
23:45our children

23:56of the majority
23:57of the European bourgeoisie
23:59they will be called
24:00to fight
24:00and to die
24:01in a war
24:02catastrophic
24:03that maybe
24:04has among its causes
24:06the same
24:07business
24:07Italian colonial
24:09the war
24:10Italian
24:11of Libya
24:12demonstrates
24:13That
24:13the Ottoman Empire
24:15he is weak
24:16not only
24:16politically
24:17culturally
24:19nationally
24:20economically
24:22financially
24:24industrially
24:24all these things
24:25we knew them
24:26demonstrates
24:27which is weak
24:27even militarily
24:28and that therefore
24:29at this point
24:30you can attack it
24:31the bloody match
24:34between whom
24:34that empire
24:35if he wants to share it
24:36on one side
24:37France
24:38England
24:39and Russia
24:39and on the other
24:41Germany
24:42and Austria
24:42which instead
24:43they have to defend it
24:44to contain
24:45Russian power
24:46it's about to begin
24:52July 22nd
24:54of 1914
24:55in the middle
24:56of the crisis

25:39I really am
25:40triumphal
25:40agree
25:42football
25:42in Brazil
25:43in 1914
25:44it's not yet
25:45football
25:45Brazilian
25:46but the countryside
25:47of the bull
25:48it's really excellent
25:49from Italy
25:50a telegram arrives
25:51wait for the end
25:53of the war
25:53to return
25:54cross
25:55the Atlantic

25:57and then everyone
25:58in Europe
25:59they are safe
26:00it will be a war
26:01flash
26:01and so
26:02the tour
26:02it transforms
26:03on a vacation
26:04forced
26:04let's go to Argentina
26:06says the organizer
26:07it's a journey
26:08adventurous
26:08but in September
26:09we start again
26:10play
26:10even if things
26:11from the parts
26:12of the Rio de la Plata
26:13they are more difficult
26:14that in Brazil
26:15of the three
26:16friendlies played
26:17two
26:17Turin
26:18he loses them
26:19then a tip
26:20from the embassy
26:21the Duke of Abruzzi
26:22is about to leave
26:23from the port of Santa Fe
26:24and it's the last one
26:26useful steamer
26:27for who knows how long
26:42they embark
26:43in the Atlantic
26:44they are stopped
26:45from a ship
26:46from English war
26:47which
26:47take away
26:48everyone
26:49the passengers
26:51of German origin
26:52and then
26:53it turns out
26:54that the war
26:54it's a lot
26:55bloody
26:56for a little while
27:01I didn't pay dearly
27:02the joke
27:03of having put myself
27:04to speak German
27:05in presence
27:06of the English officer
27:07who commanded it
27:08they had taken me
27:10for a reservist
27:11Germanic
27:12and they wanted
27:13take me away
27:18and finally
27:19they arrive in Genoa
27:20where the footballers
27:21of Turin
27:22they are welcomed
27:23from everyone
27:23the family members
27:24so there is
27:25an atmosphere
27:25very festive
27:26but I can
27:27for years and years
27:28will remember
27:28that each nucleus
27:30family
27:31was waving
27:32a postcard
27:32by precept
27:34in paleness
27:36that war
27:37on the duration of which
27:38we had
27:38much joked about
27:39he was there
27:40with open jaws
27:42to grab us
27:43a few weeks later
27:45I smoke them all
27:46in gray green
27:50Italy at war
27:51he's not going there yet
27:52the show
27:54that of football
27:55from us
27:56can continue
27:58The Federal President
28:01of the time
28:01It's Carlo Montu
28:03old gentleman
28:05Piedmontese
28:06cavalry officer
28:08that behind
28:09the pressures
28:10of the government
28:11decide
28:11on one side
28:12to continue
28:14in the activity
28:15football
28:15that is to say
28:16the championship
28:161914-1915
28:19it would have started
28:20but on the other side
28:22has the pressing
28:24request
28:25by
28:26of the government
28:28to avoid
28:28that the national team
28:30of football
28:32affronts
28:33teams
28:33of nations
28:34busy
28:35already in the conflict
28:36so as not to do
28:37to leak
28:38some of our sympathies
28:39so much so that it is true
28:40which then
28:40in that period
28:41Italy will do
28:41just one game
28:42against Switzerland
28:43neutral
28:44then it will be impossible
28:45find other opponents
28:46neutrals
28:47Therefore
28:47the activity
28:48of the national team
28:49will be interrupted
28:50The championship
28:521914-1915
28:53but
