What movies and TV programs are on tonight, Friday, November 17th? Let’s take a look together at the digital terrestrial programming of the main Rai and Mediaset networks. From the Azzurri national football team game to a new date with Le Iene. But also many films to choose from.
Another work week is over and it’s time to enjoy some well-deserved rest and relax in front of the TV. To choose what you want to see, we are here On TV tonight to advise you.
It starts immediately with Rai 1, which will attract the attention of athletes and fans with the seventh and penultimate qualifying match EURO 2024 Berlin. Our National of football will compete in the Olympic Stadium in Rome North Macedonia. The Azzurri need 4 points between today’s game and the one against Ukraine on November 20th to take part in the European Championship. For coach Luciano Spalletti, the mission is not impossible.
We continue with Italia 1, which surprisingly postpones the programming of Hyenas with Veronica Gentili and Max Angioni from Tuesday to Friday, but only for this week. So after last night’s “Le Iene present: Inside” special, we will spend two evenings in the company of correspondents in suits and black glasses with their investigations and reports.
Finally, we conclude with the satire and comedy of Maurizio Crozza who hosts his one-man show on Nove, Brothers of Crozza. There will be no shortage of incisive analyzes of politics and what is happening in our country, as well as imitations. In the last episode, we saw him literally take on the role Giorgia Meloni, Edi Rama, Luca Zaia, Vincenzo De Luca, Mauro Corona, Red Ronnie and Enrico Mentana. Who’s turn will it be tonight?
Tonight on TV: Films from the digital terrestrial program
Do you prefer a good film that keeps you glued to the screen? No problem, there are many different types of digital and we recommend two in particular. The actor made his debut behind the camera in the first part of Canale 5 Bradley Cooper We’re talking about none other than Clint Eastwood A star Is Born. The film was a huge success, grossing $413 million worldwide and taking first place as the most-watched film starring a female singer, surpassing Bodyguard Whitney Houston. He has also won nominations and awards: including an Oscar, a Golden Globe and a BAFTA for Best Song for Shallow a Lady Gaga and Best Soundtrack.
The second one on Cine34 is a parody of the film made by Federico Fellini the previous year. Totò, Peppino and la dolce vita and much of the Via Veneto’s expensive sets were reused for filming. One of the curiosities is the director Sergio Corbucci He attempted a cameo in the role of a bar patron loudly tossing around a few chips while waiting for Peppino to end the phone call. Peppino will address him with the exclamation: “Here, the bell ringer has arrived.”
“A Star Is Born” at 9:39 p.m. on Canale 5
The country rock singer Jackson “Jack” Maine (Bradley Cooper) is addicted to alcohol and drugs and is supported by his older half-brother and manager Bobby (Sam Elliott). One evening in a bar he witnesses a homage to Edith Piaf by a waitress and singer-songwriter. Allies (Lady Gaga). Jack is thrilled by the performance and invites her to his next show, where he takes her on stage to sing the song Shallow. Over time, the two begin not only working together, but also a relationship. At the same time record producer, Rez Gavron (Rafi Gavron) recognizes Ally’s great talent and offers her a contract and a new career in pop music. But Ally’s rise goes hand in hand with Jack’s fall, who must face his own demons once and for all.
Totò, Peppino and la dolce vita at 9:05 p.m. on Cine34
After unsuccessfully asking to widen the highway near their homes to allow better communication with the rest of the peninsula, residents of a small village in southern Italy decide to send a mediator. It is offered Antonio Barbican (Totò), president of the illegal park workers’ union, who sets off for Rome with a scholarship from his villagers. But after days there is no more news from Antonio, so his cousin and community secretary is sent, Peppino (Peppino De Filippo). When he arrives in Rome, he discovers that Antonio has lost his way in the frivolous life of the Via Veneto. Will Cousin Peppino manage not to give in to the joys of dolce vita and bring home the result?
